UV advanced oxidation for contaminant destruction in impaired water
Water resources are under stress due to increasing population, changing rainfall patterns, widespread pollution, and a variety of other factors. For this reason, water providers must strive to make the most of every available water source, even those that have been impacted by contamination. The TrojanUVPhox® uses the UV advanced oxidation process (UV AOP) to destroy a range of contaminants, even difficult-to-treat 1,4-dioxane and NDMA.
The TrojanUVPhox helps to safeguard against a wide variety of harmful contaminants, including 1,4-dioxane, Nitrosamines (e.g., NDMA), industrial solvents, pesticides, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), fuel and fuel additives, pharmaceuticals, personal care products and other wastewater-derived contaminants.
Vertically stackable and modular, the TrojanUVPhox allows for multiple chambers in series and the ability to expand without increasing footprint. It is available in multiple configurations with various numbers of lamps per chamber to handle virtually any flow rate.
UV AOP has the advantage of being a destructive technology that breaks down a variety of contaminants into their safe, elemental components. Other treatment technologies merely transfer the contaminant from one phase to another (e.g., air stripping: from water to air) resulting in a potentially hazardous, contaminant-laden residual that requires further treatment or disposal.
The oxidant delivery system is part of the TrojanUVPhox solution. It integrates with the UV controls to ensure smooth operation with minimal operator involvement. The UV controller can also use system inputs to determine optimal power settings for lamps and automatically turn lamps on/off or adjust lamp power. This conserves energy and extends lamp life, all while ensuring your required dose is being met.
Lamps are easily replaced without having to de-pressurize or drain the chamber. All internal components can be accessed from the ends of the chamber and, as a safety feature, the chamber automatically deactivates if the end cap is removed, protecting operators from high voltage components.
The Groundwater Replenishment System in Orange County, California, is the largest indirect potable reuse project of its kind in the world. It utilizes treatment technologies including the TrojanUVPhox for advanced oxidation.
The TrojanUVPhox installed at the Advanced Oxidation Process Water Treatment Facility in Tucson, Arizona, destroys 1,4-dioxane in their groundwater. The treated water is blended, further purified and then distributed to nearly 50,000 people in the Tucson area.
The TrojanUVPhox at the Raw Water Production Facility in Big Spring, Texas, helps treat secondary wastewater to a standard that allows it to be re-introduced directly into the raw water supply for local drinking water treatment plants.
