Sol-Air’s Ultraviolet Technology In comparison to ozone generators, activated charcoal, essential oils and biomedia filters, Sol-Air’s systems are effective and chemical-free, with lower capital and operations/maintenance costs; occupies much less real estate; is simple to operate and is easily adaptable throughout an existing plant, as well as offsite (lift stations). The wavelength frequency of Sol-Air’s lamps is particularly “tuned up” to affect the gas molecules of a wide range of compounds, including those of petrochemical origin and those containing sulfur, such as H2S and mercaptans. UV Radiation catalyses the breaking of ambient oxygen and water vapor molecules into O+ and OH-. These free radicals oxidize the odorous contaminants in the air. This reaction results in a sequential and instantaneous gas breakdown of the contaminants with minimal by-products, such as elemental sulfur, CO2, water vapor, molecular oxygen and trace ozone. Uses For Sol-Air Industrial Equipment Sol-Air’s UV equipment is easily adaptable for use in an existing plant and/or off site (lift stations). Sol-Air units can be adapted to any area where air decontamination is desired whether an out-of-the-box or custom unit is required. Note: The Vernon site has since been upgraded to a BNR Tertiary Wastewater Reclamation Plant which is overseen by, the manager of water reclamation services, Andrew Marr. The above mentioned trickling filter has been decommissioned although the Sol-Air units pictured are still being used on site. View Wastewater Powerpoint (right-click to save) |
