2. Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultraviolet_germicidal...

   A low-pressure mercury-vapor discharge tube floods the inside of a biosafety cabinet with shortwave UV light when not in use, killing microbes on irradiated surfaces. Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) is a disinfection technique employing ultraviolet (UV) light, particularly UV-C (180–280 nm), to kill or inactivate microorganisms.

3. Portable water purification - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_water_purification

   Portable water purification devices are self-contained, easily transported units used to purify water from untreated sources (such as rivers, lakes, and wells) for drinking purposes. Their main function is to eliminate pathogens, and often also of suspended solids and some unpalatable or toxic compounds. These units provide an autonomous supply ...

4. Germicidal lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germicidal_lamp

   Germicidal lamp. A 9W germicidal lamp in a modern compact fluorescent lamp form factor. Glow of a germicidal lamp excited by a high voltage probe. Close-up of the electrodes and the safety warning. A germicidal lamp (also known as disinfection lamp or sterilizer lamp) is an electric light that produces ultraviolet C (UVC) light.

5. Catskill-Delaware Water Ultraviolet Disinfection Facility

   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]

6. Far-UVC - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far-UVC

   Far-UVC is a type of ultraviolet germicidal irradiation being studied and commercially developed for its combination of pathogen inactivation properties and reduced negative effects on human health when used within exposure guidelines. [1][2][3][4] Far-UVC (200-235 nm), while part of the broader UV-C spectrum (100-280 nm), is distinguished by ...

7. Industrial water treatment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_water_treatment

   Overview. Water treatment is used to optimize most water-based industrial processes, such as heating, cooling, processing, cleaning, and rinsing so that operating costs and risks are reduced. Poor water treatment lets water interact with the surfaces of pipes and vessels which contain it. Steam boilers can scale up or corrode, and these ...
