UV Disinfection for Wastewater
As we move to a more sustainable world, environmental impact
and public safety in Wastewater treatment standards have become
paramount. UV Disinfection is a proven method of effectively treating
tertiary wastewater, sewage, ground and grey water in municipal,
Applications
•
BIOLOGICALLY TREATED
WASTE WATER - Tertiary

industrial and domestic applications. UV Disinfection at prescribed
dose offers safe, economical and environmentally friendly treatment
of wastewater for re-use; cost effectively and void of residual toxic
by-products (such as trihalomethanes). Additionally, UV disinfection
does not affect the odour or clarity of the water. Consequently, UV
disinfection has become the most commonly applied wastewater
disinfection technology.
Industrial Process applications utilise UV
disinfection to inhibit growth of micro-organisms, and remove traces of
micro pollutants.
Wastewater contains an array of pathogenic micro-organisms, including
bacteria, viruses and protozoa, which when ingested can cause severe
illness and even death in the elderly, children and immune compromised
individuals.
Disinfection is considered the primary mechanism for
inactivation and destruction of pathogenic micro-organisms to prevent
waterborne diseases spreading to downstream users and the environment. WEDECO Australia UV Systems inactivate microorganisms by emitting radiation at 254 nanometres (nm) causing DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) damage preventing DNA
replication resulting in cell death. At suitable UV dose WEDECO Australia UV disinfection systems permanently inactivate
Salmonella, E.coli, Legionella pneumophilia bacteria; adenoviruses and protozoa e.g. Cryptosporidium and Giardia resulting
in safe water for appropriate re-use processes. The level of disinfection is determined by the quality of the feed water. To
achieve a high level of disinfection, pre treatment to remove particulate matter is required.
Design
The WEDEDO Australia LCE series of UV disinfection systems consist of an electro-polished stainless steel dual reactor
chamber (except LCE 2 which is a single chamber) fitted with low pressure, high efficiency UV lamp sitting inside a protective
quartz thimble inside each reactor chamber. Water flows parallel to the quartz thimble containing the UV lamp, allowing
maximum water exposure to the UV light radiation emitted at 254nm. Each reactor unit has a coinciding control cabinet
which plugs into mains power and runs the UV lamp. Control cabinet have optional fail safe alarm and run meter, if required.
Each electro-polished chamber has standard in/outlet fittings in a “Z” pattern. These units should be mounted horizontally
(except LCE 2 which can be mounted vertically or horizontally) and are equipped with a 1.5 meter cable to the control
cabinet. The units are designed with a convenient viewing port to confirm operation.
WEDECO Australia UV disinfection systems are easily installed in your water line. UV lamps are simple to replace and only
require changing after one full year of use. A complete Installation, Operation and Maintenance manual is provided with each
system. Additional support and advice can be obtained from your local supplier or representative (refer to end page for call
centre details).
