Making Water and Air Safer and CleanerRAYOX® MODULAR TREATMENT SYSTEMModel 60 (60kW System)OverviewThe RAYOX® advanced oxidation system supplied by Calgon Carbon Corporation destroys dissolved organic contaminants in water. In this system, a proprietary high-powered, medium-pressure lamp emits high energy UV radiation through a quartz sleeve into the contaminatedwater. An oxidizing agent, typically hydrogen peroxide, is added to the contaminated water and is activated by the UVlight to form oxidizing species called hydroxyl radicals, via:H2O2 + UV > 2(•OH)The hydroxyl radical then reacts with the dissolved contaminants, initiating a rapid cascade of oxidation reactionsthat ultimately fully oxidizes (mineralizes) the contaminants.The success of the system is based on the fact that the rateconstants for the reaction of •OH radicals with most organicpollutants are very high.The hydroxyl radical typically reacts several million times faster than chemical oxidants such asozone and hydrogen peroxide. In addition, many organic contaminants are split into smaller components by the direct absorption of UV light in the UV-C spectral range emitted by proprietary medium pressure UV lamps.The RAYOX® system and its components are covered by numerous patents.System Specifications• Configuration: 2 x 30 kW Reactor• Power Supply: 480 VAC, 3ph, 60 Hz (alternate power supplies available)• Control System: PLC AB Micrologix• Shipping Weight: 5,000lbs/2,300kg• Materials:Wetted Parts - 316SS, Quartz, Fluoropolymers• External Parts - Epoxy Coated Steel, 316SS• 779L x 499W x 889HModel Features• Skid-Mounted Module• Proven, Fully Automated PLC System Control• Patented, Field Proven Lamp Cleaning Device• OSHA Approved• NEC Compliant• CSA Approved• 3,000 Hour Lamp Warranty• State-of-the-Art Lamp Power Supply• Safety Interlock Switches• Easy Installation• Upgrade for outdoor installation availableEquipment and SystemsVisit our website at www.calgoncarbon.com, or call 800-422-7266to learn more about our complete range of products and services,and obtain local contact information.ES-LEOTR60-0404 Internal Baffles for Turbulent MixingContaminated InfluentHydrogen PeroxideTreated EffluentQuickwipe™Stainless SteelQuartz Cleaner2.

Calgon Carbon Corporationwas awarded a contract to lease a 30kW trailer-mountedRAYOX® unit to demonstrate UV Oxidation technology at several well sites on the base.The results formed the basis ofthe full scale design.The Air Force proceeded with groundwater remediation attwo well sites on the base, Zone 1 and Zone 2. Calgon CarbonCorporation was awarded the contract for both treatment systems on the basis of cost and technical merit.The destruction of DCE controlled the design of Zone 1,while the destruction of 1, 1-DCA controlled the design ofZone 2.The systems were delivered in the summer of 1993.Site Characteristics Kelly Air Force Base, San Antonio,TexasZone 1• Flow: 130gpm• Influent: 1, 2-DCE - 1,200 ppb (total)TCE - 130 ppbVinyl Chloride - 120 ppb• Effluent: 1, 2-DCE - < 70 ppb cis,< 100 ppb transTCE - < 5 ppbVinyl Chloride - < 2 ppd• System: Model 90 (90 kW total)• O&M Cost: $1.34/1,000 galZone 2• Flow: 200 gpm• Influent: 1, 1-DCA - 40 ppb1, 2-DCA - 20 ppb1, 2-DCE - 300 ppb (total)TCE - 170 ppbPCE - 200 ppbVinyl Chloride - 240 ppb• Effluent: 1, 1-DCA - < 3.5 ppb1, 2-DCA - < 5 ppb1, 2-DCE - < 70 ppb cis< 100 ppb transTCE - < 5 ppbPCE - <5 ppbVinyl Chloride - < 2 ppb• System: 3 x Model 90 (270 kW total)• O&M Cost: $1.98/1,000 gallonsHydrogen Peroxide SupplyCalgon Carbon offers full service and supply of various gradesand concentrations of Hydrogen Peroxide solutions.
