Ultraviolet disinfection
specifically designed
for secondarily treated wastewater.
Dr. James Cruver, president of Salcor Engineering, Inc., author of over 40 scientific papers and a text book on ultra violet treatment, has announced the marketing of a new UV sterilizing unit designed expressly for gravity flow from a secondary treatment plant or sand filter.
Features include:
*Insures public health protection on problem or ecologically sensitive sites without the undesirable chemical externalities of chlorine or mechanical complexity of ozone generators by supplying 30,000 mWs/cm2 of UV radiation (16,000 mWs/cm2 required to meet USPHS standards for drinking water - 6,600 to kill E. coli.)
*Installed below grade with easily removable components
*Fluoropolymer coated to resist bio-fouling and chemical encrusting
*Operates on 12V -- safe for underground wiring; low power requirement, 24 watts
*Very effective, in 10 months of monitoring by public laboratory, in
Juneau, Alaska, no E. coli. bacteria were detected in effluent from a
secondary treatment package plant (MPN less than 2.2/cc)
*Servicing required just twice per year (clean the Teflon sleeve and
replace bulb once per year)
*Manufactured by a leading company in UV technology with nearly 20 years of experience. Installations include sterilizing banana smoothies and other opaque fruit juices, water supplies for salmon hatcheries protecting against highly infectious viral diseases, as well as up to 10 million gal day -1 wastewater flows.
