UV Pioneer Honored
Based in London, Ontario, Trojan Technologies produces open channel and
pressurized UV disinfection systems for industrial applications, municipal
water and wastewater treatment, commercial integration, residential use, and
elimination of environmental contaminants from wells and other sources of
drinking water, including reused water. The company’s innovations in low-energy
lamp design and optimized reactor performance have established benchmarks for
the field that have fostered global adoption of UV technology. With installed
systems at more than 5,800 facilities in more than 80 countries, Trojan has led
the worldwide drive for commercial, engineering and regulatory acceptance of
the technology as an environmentally sound alternative to traditional
chlorine-based water treatment.
“Trojan’s success has contributed to a viable competitive industry in the area of ultraviolet technologies, leading to the development of a full range of industrial technologies in both specialized and general applications,” notes the Stockholm Industry Water Award nominating committee in its citation. “Their work with other members of the UV industry has advanced world-wide regulatory acceptance, overcome many limitations of existing technologies, and provided a new means of protecting public health and developing new sources of water supply.”
By demonstrating and communicating the benefits of UV-based water treatment solutions to government regulators and industry bodies, and using education to alleviate public concerns over treatment and re-use of wastewater, Trojan Technologies has led adoption of the technology around the world. With water supplies at risk from overuse and contamination in both the developing and industrial regions of the planet, decision-makers increasingly select UV technology to ensure the safety of drinking water.
In its citation, the Stockholm Industry Water Award nominating committee highlighted several recent installations of Trojan systems that illustrate the potential of UV treatment for wastewater re-use applications. The most notable of these are large-scale projects in Orange County, California, and South East Queensland, Australia.
