Water : Calgon Carbon Announces
Recent UV Successes
PITTSBURGH,
PA -- Calgon Carbon Corporation announced today four
significant achievements of its new UV Technologies Division
- two contract awards valued at more than $900 thousand for
the supply of Sentinel UV Disinfection Systems for the
inactivation of cryptosporidium and giardia; the signing of
a license agreement by the Oakmont Water Authority in
Oakmont, Pennsylvania which will permit the Authority to
operate a Sentinel(R) UV Disinfection System (Sentinel
System) for disinfection of drinking water; and third party
validation of two Sentinel(R) reactor designs.
Calgon
Carbon received contracts for Sentinel Systems from the City
of Kelowna in B.C., Canada, and from the U.S. Army in
Gouveneur, New York. When these systems are installed later
this year, they will treat more than 70 million gallons of
water per day.
Calgon
Carbon has patented the application of low-energy
ultraviolet light for the inactivation of cryptosporidium
and other pathogens. The company offers water producers a
license to utilize its cost-effective UV technology. Under
its agreement with Calgon Carbon, the Oakmont Water
Authority will pay the company a fee of $0.015 per thousand
gallons treated. Oakmont's Sentinel System, which was
purchased from Calgon Carbon in 2003, treats up to 11.4
million gallons of water per day.
"We
are pleased with the progress that our UV Technologies
Division has made this year and with the confidence shown by
the City of Kelowna, the U.S. Army, and the Oakmont Water
Authority in our products and technology," said Bob O'Brien,
senior vice president of Calgon Carbon.
Calgon
Carbon also recently completed third-party validation tests
on two Sentinel reactor designs, including a 48-inch
diameter reactor, the highest flow reactor for the
disinfection of drinking water available in the marketplace.
Jim
Sullivan, general manager of Calgon Carbon's UV Technologies
Division, said, "These successes affirm Calgon Carbon's
decision to establish a business unit dedicated solely to
the development and marketing of ultraviolet light
technology and systems. These recent achievements are
consistent with our company's long-term strategy to be the
market leader in UV technology."
Calgon
Carbon Corporation, headquartered in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania, is a global leader in services and solutions
for making air and water cleaner and safer. The company
employs approximately 1,250 people at 18 operating
facilities and 22 sales and service centers worldwide.

Mr. Fox wants info on running a biotower:
Could someone please explain to me the
requirements for running a successful biotower to deal
with brewery waste? It is not something I normally
get involved with, therefore I would appreciate some help.
Does it need additional nutrients, what pH should the feed
be?

Australia for scrubbing NH3 and H2S. The parallel trains
each treat 16,300 Nm3/hr of foul air. With a residence
time of 0.9 seconds in the H2S stage a 99%+ efficiency is
being achieved. Tower packing is Lantec's Q-PAC.
