A huge range of chemical disinfectants are used to make water safe from microbial contamination. These chemicals can themselves be hazardous, not only when dissolved in water, but also on gaseous form.
Charlotte, NC (1st October, 2017) – Aquionics has launched a new low-pressure UV disinfection system for the treatment of municipal drinking water, re-use and waste water. The easy-to-install AmaLine UV range has been third-party validated, in line with US EPA and NWRI guidelines. It provides effective treatment, while reducing lifecycle costs through being simple to

A major talking point resulting from the UK Food Standards Agency(FSA) announcement that it plans to redesign its regulatory role, is the idea of moving away from its current inspection model.
by Bob English UV light, especially in the wavelength range of 200-280 nm, is well documented to provide excellent water disinfection. So, with the technology seen to be so effective, why might it be important to have a UV system validated? As you might expect, most of the studies on UV disinfection have focused on
by Brian Grochowski In 2009, the FDA published a revised Pasteurized Milk Ordinance (PMO), which included UV disinfection technology as an approved alternative to pasteurization for the treatment of water used within a dairy facility. Pasteurization has been considered the `gold standard’ for water treatment and used in critical dairy applications for many years. As
by Dan Shaver, May 2017 The value of accurately measuring UV Transmittance (UVT) when sizing a new UV disinfection system cannot be underestimated (see previous blog on the importance of UVT). Using an accurate UVT value during the sizing and operation of new UV equipment can have a direct impact on both energy consumption and
By Brian Grochowski The use of membrane technology is common practice within the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries. Membrane systems play an important role in purifying water, ingredient water, water reuse and recycling. While these systems are very reliable and produce consistent results, correct maintenance and monitoring of the membranes is essential to ensure optimal
