Abstract: A water treatment apparatus (10) comprising an elongate metallic brace (12) mounted to a wall (14). Components (16) are for connecting the elongate metallic brace (12) to an inlet water pipe (18) and an outlet water pipe (20), so as to electrically ground the inlet water pipe (18) to the outlet water pipe (20). The elongated metallic brace (12) will also reinforce and stabilize the apparatus (10) in an in line installation to the inlet water pipe (18) and the outlet water pipe (20). A housing assembly (22) has a lamp entrance (24), a water inlet port (26) and a water outlet port (28). The housing assembly (22) is prefabricated, so that it can be completely dismantled for cleaning and easily reassembled for use. A facility (30) is for fluidly attaching and detaching the inlet water pipe (18) to the water inlet port (26) and the outlet water pipe (20) to the water outlet port (28) of the housing assembly (22) for a quick in line installation. An elongate transparent quartz tube (32) connected to the lamp entrance (24) and centrally disposed in a leakproof manner within the housing assembly (22), is capable of passing ultraviolet rays therethrough. An elongate ultraviolet lamp (34) is inserted through the lamp entrance (24) of the housing assembly (22) and into the elongate transparent quartz tube (32), so that water passing through the housing assembly (22) will have bacteria removed therefrom.

Abstract: The efficiency of liquid light irradiation treatments is improved by making it possible to perform continuous liquid light irradiation treatments without lowering the purity of the treated liquid and without any need for interrupting the light irradiation treatment or disassembling the device. This is accomplished by stripping away contaminants adhering to all of the light-transmitting tubes of light irradiating modules (which make up the light irradiating device) during the light irradiation treatment of the liquid in question. The present invention provides a light irradiating device in which �a! light irradiating modules in which a plurality of light-transmitting tubes containing light irradiating lamps are attached to a frame are mounted inside a housing as detachable integral units so that flow paths for the light irradiation treatment of a fluid are formed, �b! a moving body is attached to a moving means which is installed inside the upper portion of the aforementioned housing, �c! supporting bodies for cleaning parts are detachably connected to the aforementioned moving body, and these supporting bodies are positioned in close proximity to the outside surfaces of the aforementioned light-transmitting tubes, and �d! cleaning parts which slide along the outside surfaces of the aforementioned light-transmitting tubes are detachably mounted on the aforementioned supporting bodies so that contaminants adhering to the aforementioned light-transmitting tubes are stripped away in the presence of the liquid during the light irradiation treatment of said liquid.

Abstract: Turbulent mixing in a UV system is increased by positioning one or more ring-shaped devices, such as washers, at one or more predetermined locations on the exterior surface of each lamp unit in the system. The washers may have the same or different diameters. Turbulent mixing is also increased by retaining the upstream end of each lamp unit in a ring-shaped device, alone or in combination with washers positioned on each lamp unit exterior surface as described above.

Abstract: An oxidation chamber used for irradiating an incoming liquid containing unwanted organic pollutants has a structure that facilitates automatic self-cleaning at intervals. A modular construction is used, and three basic types of modules are employed. One of the modules is a TEFLON.RTM. lined carbon steel pipe through which a shuttling scraper is forced at intervals. The shuttling scraper includes an annular wiper that simultaneously cleans the inside surface of the surrounding tubular module as well as the outside surface of an enclosed quartz tube. The annular wiper sealingly engages the quartz tube and the tubular module so that it is driven like a piston by the full pressure of the liquid. When the shuttling scraper has reached the end of the tubular module, it parks itself in a position that causes only minimal pressure drop. This automatic self-cleaning feature of the oxidation chamber overcomes one of the most serious problems encountered with this type of equipment, namely the tendency of a slime to form on the UV lamps and on the normally reflective walls of the chamber, thereby reducing the efficiency by reducing the amount of UV radiation reaching the liquid. When this occurred in prior art apparatus, it was necessary to shutdown the operation and to dismantle the oxidation chamber to clean the lamps and chamber walls.

Abstract: A water purification system utilizes an ultraviolet generator encased in a quartz cylinder to irradiate water flowing through a passageway defined by the surface of the quartz cylinder and an outer casing. An ultraviolet sensor and control circuit shuts off the water when the ultraviolet radiation level drops below a predetermined level. A flow-sensing switch controls an ultraviolet dimming circuit which reduces the generator output when water is not flowing. Water flow is controlled by reduced annular spaces at the inlet and outlet of the passageway and the quartz cylinder and the ultraviolet sensor are kept free of sedimentation by wiper blades.
