Important Considerations for Effective UVC Sterilization

Description

The UV-C sterilization method using UVC light has been proven effective in treating contaminated water for 40 years. UVC radiation, operating between 200-280 nanometers, works by disrupting the DNA and RNA of bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms, making reproduction impossible. This technology is widely used in drinking water purification plants, aquariums, and laboratories, among other places.

Type of contamination

Microbiological: This includes bacteria, viruses, fungi, and algae. UVC light is particularly effective against microbial contaminants. Chemical: UVC light has no effect on chemical contaminants such as heavy metals, pesticides, or solvents. Physical: If the water contains a lot of particles, these can reduce the effectiveness of UVC light, because the particles can block the light. Recommendation: For microbiological contamination, UVC can be a good solution, but for chemical and physical contaminants, the water may need to be pre-filtered or chemically treated first.

Water transparency

The clarity or turbidity of the water affects how deep UVC light can penetrate into the water. If the water is cloudy, the UVC light will not reach all microorganisms, making sterilization less effective. Recommendation: If the water is cloudy, a pre-treatment such as filtration is necessary to improve clarity.

Contact time

The time the water is in contact with UVC light is a crucial factor. The longer the water is exposed to UVC light, the more effective the sterilization. This can be achieved by adjusting the flow rate of the water through the UVC unit. Recommendation: For water with heavy microbial contamination, the contact time with UVC light should be longer, which can be adjusted by decreasing the flow or increasing the intensity of the UVC lamp.

Wavelength and intensity of the UVC light

The wavelength and intensity of the UVC light determine how effective the sterilization is. For water sterilization, a wavelength of approximately 254 nm has proven to be the most effective. Recommendation: Use a UVC lamp specifically tuned to 254 nm and ensure a sufficiently high intensity, depending on the amount and type of water being treated.

Diverse Capacities for Your Needs

The capacity of the UVC system should be matched to the volume of water to be treated. Higher capacities may require multiple UVC lamps or larger units. Recommendation: Provide a system with sufficient capacity for the intended flow rate and contamination level of the water.

Specific situations

For different types of water, such as wastewater, river water, drinking water or industrial water, the UVC system must be adapted to the specific requirements: Wastewater: Often requires pre-treatment, such as filtration and sedimentation. River water: Can be quite clear, but often contains micro-organisms and can be treated with direct UVC light. Drinking water: Relatively clear and ideal for UVC treatment, provided it is free of chemicals. Industrial water: Depends on the nature of the contaminants (chemical, biological, physical) and may require additional treatment.

Conclusion

UVC light is a powerful technology for sterilizing microbiologically contaminated water, but its effectiveness depends on the nature of the contaminants, the transparency of the water and the correct sizing of the UVC system. For optimal results, it is often necessary to pre-treat the water and choose the right parameters for UVC exposure.

We are all at risk of contracting and spreading viruses and bacteria, especially in public spaces such as offices, shops, schools, public transport, but also at home. UWV-C radiation has been used intensively for more than 40 years and is an effective disinfectant for air, surfaces, objects and water. BBM Ledproducts specializes in UV-C technology. In laboratory tests, our UV-C light sources destroyed 99% of all germs on a surface and in the air with an exposure time of a few seconds.
