    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catskill-Delaware_Water...

    The Catskill-Delaware Water Ultraviolet Disinfection Facility is a 160,000-square-foot (15,000 m 2) ultraviolet (UV) water disinfection plant built in Westchester County, New York to disinfect water for the New York City water supply system. [1] The compound is the largest ultraviolet germicidal irradiation plant in the world. [2]

    Since the ATS contains a living ecosystem of microbes to digest the waste products in the water, excessive amounts of items such as bleach or antibiotics can damage the ATS environment and reduce treatment effectiveness. Non-digestible items should also be avoided, as they will build up in the system and require more frequent sludge removal.

    Using UV light for disinfection of drinking water dates back to 1910 in Marseille, France. [61] The prototype plant was shut down after a short time due to poor reliability. In 1955, UV water treatment systems were applied in Austria and Switzerland; by

    They are also called point-of-use water treatment systems and field water disinfection techniques. Techniques include heat (including boiling), filtration, activated charcoal adsorption, chemical disinfection (e.g. chlorination , iodine, ozonation , etc.), ultraviolet purification (including sodis ), distillation (including solar distillation ...

  6. Germicidal lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germicidal_lamp

    A germicidal lamp (also known as disinfection lamp or sterilizer lamp) is an electric light that produces ultraviolet C (UVC) light. This short-wave ultraviolet light disrupts DNA base pairing , causing formation of pyrimidine dimers , and leads to the inactivation of bacteria , viruses , and protozoans .

  7. Water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_purification

    Ultraviolet light (UV) is very effective at inactivating cysts, in low turbidity water. UV light's disinfection effectiveness decreases as turbidity increases, a result of the absorption, scattering, and shadowing caused by the suspended solids. The main disadvantage to the use of UV radiation is that, like ozone treatment, it leaves no ...
