Specifying details for the Titanium AOP

• The water purification and disinfection unit shall break down and destroy all waterborne contaminates, pollutants and carbon based matter by the use of Hydroxyl Radicals.
• The purification and disinfection process will take place by means of an Advanced Oxidation Process.
• Photo-Catalytic Oxidation will be created by photonic energy at wavelength 254nm and Titanium Dioxide that will generate Hydroxyl Radicals.
• The body of the unit shall be of Titanium Dioxide to maximize the Photo-Catalytic reaction creating Hydroxyl Radicals.
• The Photo-Catalytic Oxidation shall have a Redox Potential of 3.21 and the Hydroxyl Radicals a Redox Potential of 2.8 to ensure complete oxidation of all waterborne contaminates and organic matter.
• No additives shall be used in the process and no harmful residuals shall be formed.
• The unit shall include a full controls system that runs from a 230V 50Hz fused spur supply. The controls should include facilities for a remote control system, failure indications, UV intensity monitor, water temperature measurement, mild start function and soft heating function.
