The power generation industry recognizes Total Organic Carbon (TOC) as an important cause of corrosion
Organic contamination of pure water from power plants can cause a series of costly problems: it can foul the resins of
ion exchange in the makeup water and condensate deionizers, which requires more frequent cleaning and replacement of the resin.
TOC contamination found in water will convert to corrosive acids at higher pressures, which can reduce the life of boilers, reactors
and the turbine blades. High purity water is necessary for the continuous operation of power facilities.
UV TOC reduction systems are a solution to these problems (at 185nm wavelength) in a technology design.
low pressure lamps. This energy favors the formation of OH free radicals that lead to the oxidation of organic compounds.
present in the water.
Most common applications
TOC reduction
Ultraviolet (UV) systems are used for the effective reduction of organics, commonly known as TOC (total organic carbon).
TOC reduction is achieved through a powerful 185nm wavelength UV system, appropriately designed and sized for compliance
of this application, as well as strategically located in combination with other equipment.
Carbon dioxide is a typical byproduct of the TOC reduction process, which results in a decrease in water resistivity. While the
Most organic molecules are oxidized into carbon dioxide and water molecules, other more resistant species are ionized or weakly charged,
after absorbing UV. Therefore, polishing deionization (DI) beds are typically placed downstream of TOC reduction units,
so that they not only remove charged/ionized organics, but also restore the resistivity of the water.
