UV SYSTEMS FOR WATER TREATMENT DISINFECTION STERILISATION residential. Aquapure hightech UV Systems designs, develops, manufactures and services and a diverse range of ultraviolet systems for water treatment. All our units are WaterMark certified. We also supply UV lamps, electronic UV ballasts, quartz thimbles, UV intensity sensors, UV monitors, and miscellaneous UV spares like O rings, quartz tube wiper rings & gaskets for our own and most common UV brands used in Australian, New Zealand and Oceania markets.
We supply residential, commercial and industrial UV systems for potable and wastewater water treatment.
UV light is effective against all viruses, bacteria and protozoa.
- It is important to filter water before treatment with a UV light to make sure that all suspended particles are removed, because Micro organisms hide in suspended particles.
- Potable drinking water, comes from natural sources. Most of our drinking water comes from rainwater collected in dams, canals, rivers, lakes, aquifers, or rainwater tanks. Rainwater runoffs from many sources pick up contamination of different types along the way. Waterborne bacteria, viruses, cysts, spores and similar microorganisms are indeed responsible for many contagious diseases
- Food , beverage and bottled water plants pay special attention to microbial quality of their water. Food & beverage water disinfection with UV has many advantages:
- Reliable disinfection: No microorganism is known to resist adequate UV dose.
- No change to taste or smell: With UV there is no change to taste or smell of water.
- Corrosion free: There is no risk of pitting corrosion of stainless steel pipelines, because UV doesn’t affect pH of water.
- Online monitoring: UV intensity monitors provide real time control of the disinfection process.
- Inexpensive: Total cost of UV disinfection works out to a few cents per m3.
- Wastewater contains high concentrations of bacteria and other coliforms. It can also contain other microorganisms like viruses. Without adequate treatment, wastewater can easily spread diseases. As a result, disinfection is a key part of wastewater treatment. Modern processes like MBR, MBBR and UF can treat wastewater to a high level. Regardless, they are not designed for disinfection. Consequently, UV plays a key role in wastewater disinfection.
Chlorine has its limitations in wastewater disinfection and costs of ozone disinfection of wastewater are prohibitive.
UV offers a reliable, non-chemical and economical way to disinfect
- The Aqua Culture Industry stocks high value fish and crustaceans. The fish stock is always under threat of contamination from bacteria and other microorganisms in water.
Chlorine doesn’t protect from chlorine-resistant microorganisms. Ozone can be used, but can be very expensive. Excess chlorine or ozone can be harmful to the fish. There are restrictions on use of chemicals in fish farms as well.
This makes UV an attractive option for aquaculture industry. When used correctly, UV offers a reliable disinfection option to fish farms and hatcheries. UV doesn’t change pH of water, is safe to use and can be monitored online.
Depending on requirements, ultraviolet disinfection on fish farms is commonly used in:
- Feed water to inactivate fish pathogens in inlet water
- Fish tank disinfection in a recirculation loop to for fish tank water disinfection
- Effluent water disinfection
- Fish hatchery disinfection
- Seafood farm disinfection
- Process water in fish and seafood processing units
- Marine wellboats and transportation tanks
- Aquarium disinfection
INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS OF UV
Examples of UV Technology use in Industrial and Commercial Applications:
- Pretreatment before RO membranes to reduce biofouling
- Ultrapure Water: Disinfection, TOC reduction, De-chlorination and Ozone Destruction
- Disinfection of fluid media for Secondary Cooling Systems (Brine, Chillers)
- Food and Beverage Wash Water and Rinse Water processing
- Aquaculture water recirculation systems
- Cooling Tower water disinfection
- Effluent Disinfection for reuse and discharge
Our UV Systems offer reliable protection from pathogens like Aero monas, Enterovirulent E-Coli, Pseudomonas, Streptococcus, Vibrio and other pathogenic microorganisms.
C™ and FM™ Series are used for freshwater disinfection, while ™M series” is popular for saltwater disinfection.
Customized units for high flow rates are available on request
