UV and AOP to Replace Chlorine and Related Technologies as Leading Disinfection Technologies by 2024
Disinfection is an important step in ensuring that water is safe to drink. Water and wastewater systems add disinfectants to destroy microorganisms that can cause diseases in humans. Numerous factors can impact the formation of disinfection by-products. These include the concentrations and types of organic substances present whilst chlorine is added, the volume of chlorine dosed, the pH and the temperature of the water, and the reaction time. To control the formation of such halogenated by-products, using alternative disinfection systems that do not produce undesirable by-products is often considered as the cost-effective strategy.
Primary methods of disinfection are chlorination, chloramines, ultraviolet, and ozone. Other efficient disinfection methods such as UV-LED, electro-chlorination systems, and peroxy disinfection are entering the market, seeking to eventually replace the incumbent conventional technologies.
This study provides an in-depth insight into the global water and wastewater disinfection systems market, focussing especially on various efficient technologies such as smart UV and AOP, ozone, electro-chlorination, and chlorine dioxide systems that are deployed to effectively disinfect drinking and processed water. Chlorine dioxide systems, electro-chlorination, and peroxy disinfection are expected to gain increasing attention in the coming years.
