UVC Disinfection Technologies for Water Treatment
Overview
This webinar was presented in Chinese only.
In this session, Zhen Wang of Excelitas explores how UVC disinfection technologies can address the diverse requirements of water treatment applications. Key topics include how UVC light inactivates microorganisms and the role of UV intensity, exposure time, and dose in treatment effectiveness.
Building on these fundamentals, the differences between low-pressure mercury, amalgam, out-of-arc (OoA) amalgam, and medium-pressure UVC technologies are examined, including how factors such as UV output, energy efficiency, operating temperature, lifetime, and system requirements influence light source selection.
Applications covered include municipal and process water treatment, ultrapure water, food and beverage production, swimming pools, and ballast water, highlighting how tailored UV solutions can support reliable and efficient water treatment.
