atg UV Technology have a range of systems specially designed for the production of high quality ultra pure water for use within a range of pharmaceutical and electronic production (semi conductors) applications. Ultrapure Water TOC Reduction De-Chlorination Ozone Destruct.
Water is often used as a product, or as part of the manufacturing process. In many industrial applications, processes are chemical (chlorine) intolerant, and UV is widely adopted. atg UV Technology engineers will be pleased to discuss solving disinfection problems with you. As well as a powerful disinfectant, UV is used to remove chlorine, chloramines, ozone, bromine, and a wide variety of contaminants from industrial process water. Within micro-electronics facilities for example, UV is used to remove Total...
With atg UV systems treating in excess of 2500 m3/hr daily, Ultraviolet disinfection is no longer an ‘emerging` technology. A number of Water Treatment Works across the world are now investing heavily in Ultraviolet technology as the threat of chlorine resistant parasites, such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia, continue to pose a serious risk to water companies and their customers. To this end, in the UK, the DWI have issued their guidelines for UV operation and system selection to the UK water...

With an increasing emphasis on safety, product quality and regulation, the requirement for efficient and effective disinfection of liquid sugar applications has seen many manufactures turn to UV disinfection systems for an effective, non chemical solution. Concentrated sugar syrups have a high osmotic pressure, which prevents micro-organisms from reproducing. However, many micro-organisms still survive in spore form and have the ability to grow and reproduce upon dilution of the sugar syrup solution thus...

The purpose of de-chlorination is the removal of free chlorine and combined chlorine compounds from potable water, as supplied by municipal water supplies. Chlorine will oxidize the surface of thin film composite polyamide membranes, causing the membrane to lose its ability to repel or reject salts. As a result, the membranes used in Reverse Osmosis (RO) or Electro-deionisation (EDI) systems will exhibit shorter lifetimes when exposed to chlorine in the water they are treating and membrane manufacturers will...
Ozone is an allotropic form of oxygen; each molecule contains three atoms of oxygen instead of the usual two. Ozone is a powerful disinfectant and has been used commercially for the treatment of potable water since 1904. It is produced on site in the same way that ozone is formed naturally, by the discharge of electricity during a thunderstorm. A high voltage is passed across a gas stream containing oxygen. This method of ozone generation is called corona discharge. The energy of...
Total Organic Carbon (TOC) is found in all water supplies as naturally occurring organic matter. Over many years of experience, medium or low pressure UV treatment has become recognised as an effective process step in the breakdown and reduction of TOC in water intended for use in pharmaceutical, health care, power generation and micro-electronics applications. In the latter case, ultra-pure water is used to wash silicon wafers on which even small deposits of carbon compounds on the wafers can severely affect...
Advanced Oxidation reactions are an extension of the process whereby UV alone is used to reduce Total Organic Carbon (TOC) through the lysing of water molecules into hydroxyl radicals. Hydroxyl radicals (OH) are produced with the help of one or more primary oxidants (usually ozone or hydrogen peroxide) and ultraviolet light. This reactive species is the strongest oxidant that can be applied in water and can oxidize virtually any compound present in the water.
As water features, wave machines, flumes and splash pads raise the fun factor in swimming pools, traditional methods of disinfecting water, using chlorine, are causing problems for operators and customers alike. Higher water temperatures and increased turbulence in leisure pools requires increased dosages of chlorine, leading to pool users complaining of burning eyes, red or itchy skin and an over powering chlorine smell throughout the facility. In some extreme cases the fabric of the building has also been...

Before natural gas or oil is transported through new pipelines, the entire length of the pipeline assembly is pressure tested using either fresh water or seawater, and is the final construction ‘quality assurance’ test before the pipeline is put into operation. The pressure test is held for a specific amount of time, from between 1 day and 100 days, to ensure structural integrity before the pipeline is placed into operation.
Spas and therapy pools are often specialised applications, which operate with both increased temperatures and increased water turbulence. Due to the high temperature of the water and increased bather loads, pool applications, such as spas and therapy pools, are breeding grounds for harmful microorganisms, such as E-Coli and Cryptosporidium, despite high levels of chlorine.
