How UV Works
UV-Photolysis is a photochemical reaction
that takes place when a contaminant
molecule absorbs UV light. The photons
break down chemical bonds of the molecule
and reduce the potentially harmful chemical
to its safe, elemental components (similar to
steps 1 through 3 in illustration, left).
UV-Oxidation (illustrated at left) is also a
photochemical reaction, but involves the
irradiation of hydrogen peroxide with UV
light. This creates strongly oxidizing hydroxyl
radicals (steps 1 through 3) that oxidize the
contaminant, breaking the bonds between
the molecules, and reducing the potentially
harmful chemical to its safe, elemental
components (steps 4 through 7).
