Treatment technology
Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 uses an enhanced form of UV treatment, developed in cooperation with Wallenius Water. It performs without the addition of salt or chemicals, even when operating in fresh water.
Biological disinfection
Biological disinfection, which is the main treatment process, occurs within an enhanced UV reactor. The reactor has a flow-optimized interior that ensures high turbulence and concentration of the UV dose.
The medium-pressure UV lamps within the reactor employ specially designed lamp sleeves of synthetic quartz. These unique sleeves support transmission of a broader wavelength spectrum and provide more UV light during disinfection.
