Learn about the advantages and disadvantages of ultraviolet (UV) disinfection in the Water Environment Federation’s (WEF’s; Alexandria, Va.) new book, Ultraviolet Disinfection for Wastewater: Low-Dose Application Guidance for Secondary and Tertiary Discharges. The book, which offers case study examples, fills a gap in the design guidance for UV disinfection for low-dose applications such as disinfection of secondary and tertiary wastewater effluent.
The book, developed in conjunction with the International Ultraviolet Association, serves as a guide for consultants, wastewater utilities, and operators. It also provides information to regulatory agencies that review applications for the use of UV disinfection systems in water resource recovery facilities that are subject to discharge limits for bacteria under National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permits.
