Disinfection

Water in its natural state is alive and, depending on whether it’s sea or fresh water, flowing or still, surface or ground water, potable or non-potable, it contains a greater or lesser number of living organisms. One role of some of these microorganisms, for example, is to maintain the natural balance of healthy water, while others may contaminate water courses and be harmful to health.

The wide range of applications for water at its different levels of purity and the legal stipulations or standards governing them also require different disinfection processes. The application, type of contamination, water quality and available materials will therefore determine the most suitable process to implement.

Cillit professionals can supply both chemical and physical disinfection processes. With chemical disinfection, an oxidant such as chlorine or chlorine dioxide is introduced into the water system via a pump, reducing contamination to a level that does not pose a health risk. The total elimination of pathogens in contaminated pipes is almost impossible.

With the physical disinfection method pathogens can be destroyed using UV light. This process is used mainly in the food and beverage industry, because UV treatment does not affect the smell or taste of the water. Ozone is also used as strong oxidisation agent, but must be produced on site as it degrades fairly quickly! Our specialists will be on hand to provide expert advice on the right model and design for the disinfection system that best meets your needs
