Xylem Wedeco LBX 850e wastewater disinfection solution

The Xylem Wedeco LBX 850e system is a closed-vessel, ultraviolet (UV) disinfection solution which has been optimised for large-scale wastewater treatment plants, industrial and water re-use applications. The energy-efficient system has been fully validated according to the US Environmental Protection Agency’s UV Disinfection Guidance Manual (USEPA’s UVDGM 2006) and the National Water Research Institute (NWRI) guidelines by independent, industry-leading Carollo Engineers.

The low-pressure, high-output amalgam UV system uses Ecoray lamp technology which is claimed to consume approximately one-third of the amount of energy that medium-pressure lamp systems need to operate.

The OptiDose control ensures the required dosage is applied while conserving power and lamp life. Additionally, the automatic wiping system maintains maximum sleeve transmittance resulting in peak efficiency. By keeping the sleeves continuously clean, the system uses less energy which lowers operational costs and maintenance effort.

The LBX series treats a wide range of liquids in many different industries. It is an adaptable and flexible system that can be tailored for wastewater treatment plants and industrial applications such as disinfection of sugar syrup within the food and beverage industry. It is also suitable for water treatment plants using surface water as source.
