An environmentally friendly and highly effective method of water disinfection that uses germicidal Ultraviolet (UV-C) light to inactivate microorganisms without the addition of chemicals. The water passes through a chamber where a powerful UV lamp, encased in a protective quartz sleeve, exposes pathogens (bacteria, viruses, cysts) to high-intensity UV-C radiation. This energy disrupts the microbes' DNA, preventing them from reproducing and effectively killing them. UV systems are often used as a final polishing step in domestic and commercial purification trains, ensuring microbiological safety without altering the water's taste, odor, or chemical composition.
