International UV Association |
The International Ultraviolet
Association was incorporated as a
non-profit in April 1999, and dedicated to serving all
professional fields with interests in UV technology. This includes
UV disinfection for drinking water, wastewater and water for
reuse; the fields of UV curing of adhesives, polymers, and inks;
the use of UV in the biotechnology fields; the use of UV in
forensic science; the use of UV in the entertainment field; the
use of UV in the sun tanning field; the use of UV in
treatment/storage of foods, the use of UV in non-destructive
testing etc... The decision by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) to include UV disinfection
of surface water in the upcoming US drinking water regulations has
surely given IUVA a boost, but this is not the only factor. As of
late 2003, we now have over 500 members from 29 countries,
interested in all facets of UV technologies and applications...
The primary goal of IUVA is to advance the science, engineering
and applications of ultraviolet technologies to enhance the
quality of human life and protect the environment...

UV Water Treatment |
UV treatment is one of several
technologies the Environmental Protection Agency will recommend to
help communities meet new, more stringent drinking-water standards
due out in 2002. UV light is not only effective, but also very
efficient. It can disinfect water at about one-tenth the cost
of other treatment methods ... in part because the equipment
is so small.
A UV light facility for New York City, which provides 1.6 billion
gallons of water a day, would take the space of one football
field. An ozone facility, by comparison, would require 1000 times
more space. The city, which will need to significantly upgrade its
water treatment to meet the new EPA regulations, would save
literally billions of dollars on the installation of a UV
facility...
