DEVICE FOR IRRADIATING LIQUIDS

摘要

Disclosed is a reactor for irradiating ultraviolet light into a fluid reaction medium (3). The reactor comprises at least a housing (15) which encloses a tubular cavity and a radiation source (1) for the production of ultraviolet light in addition to an inner tube (2) which, together with the housing(15), forms an especially annular-shaped irradiation chamber (26) . The irradiation chamber (26) is connected to at least one inlet (13) and one outlet (14) for the reaction medium, said reaction medium (3) flowing through the irradiation chamber in the longitudinal direction of the tube (2). The irradiation chamber (26) is provided with means (6, 25) for additional radial flow guidance of the reaction medium (3).
