UV system for Angel November 1st 2005 Angel Springs in the Chiltern Hills bottles natural spring water for use in water coolers. It has replaced its ozone water disinfection unit with a Hanovia UV system following concerns about disinfection byproducts being formed as a result of ozone treatment.
Andrew Glaister of Angel Springs comments "Even though our bromide ion levels are not particularly high, we decided to go for the safer option and use UV instead. UV has no downsides, only upsides, and since its installation we have been happy with its performance.
"The UV system has done 2000h so far and we won't need to change the UV lamp until after 8000h operation, so it is very efficient."
The water originates from a natural spring on the site.
After filtration to remove physical particles, it passes through the UV chamber and is then bottled. There is no further water treatment and no chemical treatment. More articles from Hanovia Limited: |
