UV disinfection system

摘要

A UV Disinfection System is provided comprising a wastewater treatment device in combination with a UV treatment device. Multiple embodiments provide that the UV treatment device is contained substantially within the wastewater treatment device. Embodiments include those wherein the UV treatment device is substantially vertically oriented and extends downward from an outlet shared by the wastewater treatment device and the UV treatment device, thereby requiring all flow exiting the wastewater treatment device to pass through the UV treatment device.

主权项

1. A wastewater treatment system comprising:
a wastewater treatment device having a wastewater outlet, the wastewater outlet being contained substantially within said wastewater treatment device; and a UV treatment device; the UV treatment device further comprising:
a UV light source,a UV treatment device housing,a housing inlet,and a housing outlet; said UV treatment device being contained substantially within said wastewater treatment device, wherein said housing outlet of the UV treatment device is also the wastewater outlet for said wastewater treatment device, and wherein said wastewater treatment system is configured to provide at least tertiary wastewater treatment within the system; said UV treatment device housing being substantially vertically oriented with respect to the ground and extending downward from said housing outlet; said housing inlet being disposed on said UV treatment device housing deeper in the vertical plane than said housing outlet; said UV light source being substantially contained within said UV treatment device housing; wherein said housing inlet comprises an opening for facilitating the entry of fluid and for allowing solids to fall out of said UV treatment device housing; and substantially all flow exiting said wastewater treatment device passing through said housing outlet.
