UVT 101: UV Transmittance Monitoring for UV Disinfection
ABOUT UVT UV transmittance, UV transmission or UVT is a measurement of the amount of ultraviolet light (commonly at 254 nm due to its germicidal effect) that passes through a water sample compared to the amount of light that passes through a pure water sample. To measure UVT, ultraviolet light at 254 nm is passed through a 10 mm quartz cell containing the sample water. The intensity of attenuated ...

Gas Concentration Monitoring in the Industry
There are often rules and regulations dictating what and how to monitor when it comes to emissions to the ambient air. By example, the European Union has established the Industrial Emissions Directive (the IED, 2010/75/EU) with conclusions on best available techniques (BATCs) for different types of industries. These documents serve as guidance and in some cases minimum requirements for national ...

Optimize Chemical Dosage for Water Treatment with UV254
Drinking water plants that use surface water or groundwater under the influence of surface water are susceptible to high levels of organic matter in the raw water. Reduction of organic matter through coagulation/ sedimentation and filtration plays a critical role in lowering the potential for disinfection by-product formation (DBP) and minimizing operational problems. Organic matter in water ...
