Abstract: A system for solar disinfection of fluid. One most preferred version of the system includes: (a) A UVTC, made of a polyethylene laminate film with an approximately rectangular plan, providing: a. A first compartment. b. A second compartment for holding fluid, with a port to fill and dispense. (b) A Disinfection Monitor Module (“DMM”) located in the first compartment which: a. Includes at least one sensor to measure radiation intensity. b. Provides at least one user interface: c. Contains a wireless communication interface. d. Operates according to a process that ensures sufficient cumulative exposure of the contained fluid to solar UV to achieve adequate solar disinfection. Alternative embodiments may also include sensors to detect additional characteristics, such as transmittance, turbidity, “combined transmittance,” and/or temperature.

Abstract: A system for solar disinfection of fluid. One most preferred version of the system includes: (a) A UVTC, made of a polyethylene laminate film material with a “cut and weld” process, shaped generally like a pillow with an approximately rectangular plan, providing: a. A first compartment. b. A second compartment for holding fluid, with a port to fill and dispense, the second compartment proximate to the first compartment. (b) A Disinfection Monitor Module (“DMM”) located in the first compartment which: a. Includes at least one sensor to measure radiation (e.g. solar UV light) intensity. b. Provides at least one user interface including: i. “Start” and “stop” pushbuttons, switches or the like. ii. “Wait” and “Safe” visual indicators, such as LEDs. c. Contains a wireless communication interface. d. Operates according to a process that ensures sufficient cumulative exposure of the contained fluid to solar UV to achieve adequate solar disinfection. Alternative embodiments may also include one or more additional sensors to detect additional characteristics, such as fluid properties including transmittance, turbidity, “combined transmittance,” and/or temperature.

Abstract translation: 一种用于太阳能消毒液体的系统。 该系统的一个最优选版本包括：（a）由具有“切割和焊接”工艺的聚乙烯层压薄膜材料制成的UVTC，其通常类似于具有大致矩形平面图的枕头，其提供：a。 第一个隔间 b。 用于保持流体的第二隔室，具有用于填充和分配的端口，邻近第一隔室的第二隔室。 （b）位于第一隔间的消毒监测模块（“DMM”）：a。 包括至少一个用于测量辐射（例如太阳紫外光）强度的传感器。 b。 提供至少一个用户界面，包括：i。 “开始”和“停止”按钮，开关等。 ii。 “等待”和“安全”视觉指示器，如LED。 C。 包含无线通讯接口。 d。 根据确保充分累积暴露于太阳紫外线以达到足够的太阳能消毒的过程来操作。 替代实施例还可以包括一个或多个额外的传感器来检测附加特性，例如包括透射率，浊度，“组合透射率”和/或温度的流体特性。
