Ultra-Violet (UV), Ozone & Advanced Oxidation Technologies for Industrial & Municipal Water Treatment

Monday, September 26th, 2011

ESCO International Solutions & Technologies provide a unique portfolio of process expertise, advanced technologies and equipment, specializing in Ozone, UV and Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOP) for water, gas effluent, air & odour treatment.
Adapting to strict user guidelines and customer focused design means ESCO International systems are reliable and delivers high water purification standards.

As conventional treatment methods become limited in their effectiveness, never has industry been under such pressure to eliminate toxic micro- pollutants and new emerging organic contaminants from water. Our innovative solutions and technologies give ESCO International a commanding position when it comes to treating challenging and specific organic compounds from water, cost effectively reducing TOC and hard COD. We also lead in applications for water disinfection, VOCs reduction, oxidation of wide range of organic contaminants and micro-pollutants, removal of chloramines and chloro-organics, reduction in Endocrine Disrupting Compounds (EDCs) and pharmaceutical products, providing exceptional water purification for reuse/reclaim purposes including Irrigation & Agriculture.

In today’s uncertain environment and ever changing climate conditions, clean water is a scarce commodity for many countries. Resourcing and re-using water is the only option available for governments and water suppliers to implement, under stringent environmental and water reclaim standards. Growing concerns in drinking water due to Cryptosporidium, Giardia and EDCs mean it has become essential to utilize advanced solutions and technologies for safe and effective water purification. ESCO International’s technologies selection includes Low pressure (Amalgam lamps) & Medium pressure UV systems; Ozone generator & systems; engineered AOP solutions; design & supply of Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems; Pilot plants and Laboratory services.

Our aim is to provide cost effective and sustainable solutions. Our technical consultancy is up for a challenge to meet your needs for water purification using UV, Ozone and advanced oxidation technologies.

UV technology for TOC reduction in Power plants and Semi-conductor industries

Monday, September 26th, 2011

ESCO International has recently designed and supplied TOC UV reduction systems for a power plant in Russia successfully treating process water to reduce TOC levels from 700 ppb to below 100 ppb.
Our scope of supply included three UV systems to be installed after a Reverse Osmosis (RO) system and, before a membrane degasifier, EDI and polishing mixed bed, with process water flow rate of 25 m3/h for each TOC UV system. The reduction target of less than 100 ppb was successfully met thanks to ESCO’s compact design TOC UV systems using advanced amalgam UV lamp technology.
ESCO International also leads in applications for water disinfection, oxidation of a wide range of organic contaminants, micro-pollutants, removal of chloramines and chloro-organic compounds, reduction in Endocrine Disrupting Compounds (EDCs) and pharmaceutical products, COD and VOCs reduction, providing exceptional water purification for reclaim, reuse, recycle and discharge purposes.

We provide process expertise, advanced technologies and servicing to ensure cost effectiveness and sustainability. Our comprehensive selection of technologies and solutions include Low pressure High output & Amalgam type UV systems; Medium pressure UV systems; Ozone generator systems; engineered Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP) solutions; design & supply of RO systems; Pilot plants and Laboratory services.

Our technical team is up for a challenge to meet your needs using the latest Ultra-violet (UV), Ozone and advanced oxidation technologies. For Professional solutions email: info@escouk.com or visit our website: www.escouk.com or call +44 (0) 1492 584140.

UV Technology – Unique in Water Disinfection

Monday, September 26th, 2011

Due to its undisputable Success &
Efficiency in destroying Cryptosporidium
and Combined Chlorine, The Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention
Recommends installing UV Systems

It has taken many years of testing to convince the pool market that the most reliable and best available option for treating and disinfecting water is through using Ultraviolet (UV) technology. UV systems have breached the market through providing a missing link in the disinfection system puzzle, as the treated water is free from the complete range of germicidal spectrum including Cryptosporidium and Giardiasis, an added advantage over only using chemical disinfectants such as chlorine. Unfortunately, some of the chlorine used for disinfection interacts with ammonia and other organic nitrogen based substances to form chloramines and chloro-organics, the main reason of “burning in the eyes” and the characteristic smell noticeable near swimming pools. Research shows chloramines and chloro-organics in their volatile form, known as Volatile Organic Carbons (VOC’s) a suspected toxic carcinogens, that can lead to more severe permanent health deterioration such as cancer related diseases and asthma.
The disinfection principle relies on the ability of the UV lamps to emit radiation at wavelengths that can alter chemicals bonds in nucleotides, disabling germicidal replication. UV can successfully also be used in reduction of unwanted chemicals including harmful chloramines and chloro-organics in pool water.
ESCO International’s offers over 30 standard UV systems including In-line MP UV (optionally Ozone and AOP system) which have the ability to treat water flow rates of up to 1400m3/h. Our UV systems offer a selection of lamp technologies (medium-pressure, low-pressure Amalgam lamps) suitable for wide range of commercial and domestic pools & spas. Our UV system can be supplied with manual or optional fully automatic cleaning system and, variable UV lamp power settings that can also be controlled by a user friendly control panel.
Often high volume traffic in commercial pools can easily overpower the typical disinfection system, leading to higher chlorine dosing of pool water, increasing the risk of chloramines and chloro-organics and, subsequent dangers. ESCO International’s UV systems have been vigorously tested and, show they are reliable in successfully reducing the level of combined chlorine (chloramines) to below 0.2 ppm. The research showed that installing ultraviolet (UV) system leads to lower free chlorine levels and the need to hyper-chlorinate the pool is less frequent, making pool operation more cost effective and safer.
ESCO International’s UV system range offers not only a peace of mind for pool operators but also gives bathers crystal clear safe and healthy water to enjoy.
