UV Disinfection Unit Provides Cost-Effective Uses for UV Against Biofouling

摘要

A unique, medium-pressure ultraviolet (UV) disinfection unit, representing multiple scientific advancements for this treatment method, has provided 98+% reduction of veliger settlement in a pro-active dreissenid mussel control application, at UV doses lower than anticipated. In addition, the unique unit has lower power consumption and smaller footprint than needed by most other medium-pressure units, while providing for a new level of treatment reliability.
