AOP uses ultraviolet light in conjunction with standard oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide or chlorine to achieve greatly increased performance by producing very reactive hydroxyl radicals (•OH).
Markets/Applications Addressed:
Calgon Carbon’s UV Technologies Division has over 30 years of Advanced Oxidation experience treating a broad spectrum of contaminated groundwater, process water, wastewater and drinking water, spanning over 400 installations with the Rayox and Sentinel AOP products. Our expertise provides accurate scale-up to full-scale from a simple design test on representative water.
The cost–effectiveness and simplicity of UV disinfection technology, coupled with advanced oxidation, enables it to function alone or as an additional fail-safe with activated carbon and ion exchange systems for complex multi-source or multi-contaminant water treatment facilities.
Municipal Drinking Water
Used alone or in tandem with activated carbon or ion exchange technology to help meet regulations and market demands by:
