Tratamiento de agua para el consumo humano con radiación UV, para la inactivación de coliformes

Abstract

The UV radiation has disintegrating properties of microorganism DNA, so is for it a successfully option into the water purification field in order to make it apt for human consumption. Inside this experimental Project the effectiveness of using UV radiation is evident, after take a sample during five days in a row at 12:00, it was possible to make essays of the contaminated and treated samples , in front of the results obtained it’s more easier to understand the behavior of coliforms in the untreated water: The coliforms are presents in a small quantity in the water, however if water is turbid because of weather like a heavy rain, the coliforms quantity increase cause of the sediments dragged into the water, on the other hand it’s easy to understand the behavior of treated water: the resultant samples are coliforms free, it means that water is apt for human consumption because it is accord to the regulatory parameters of the permissible quantity of coliforms into the water for human consumption. Finally it concludes with an elaboration of a manual for Ultraviolet Radiation guide and usage for water purifying, it will benefit the desire of improve the knowledge of all the technologies innovations’ for water purifying.
