Although the science of ultraviolet (UV) disinfection for water treatment is being rapidly
developed, much of the developing knowledge base is based on "paper studies" and very
little information is available from actual operating facilities. Operational issues,
requirements, and costs are major aspects to consider in evaluating UV disinfection for any
facility.
The City of Henderson, Nevada, is currently constructing one of the first UV disinfection
facilities in the United States for surface water treatment. As of August 2002, an extended
period performance test has been completed at the Henderson UV facility. This performance
test generated real operating data for a full-scale facility and addressed the key operating
issues associated with the implementation of UV disinfection.
