Why Disinfecting Wastewater is Critical

Wastewater disinfection is the process of inactivating or destroying pathogenic microorganisms. The main objective of disinfection is to reduce the number of waterborne pathogens to permitted levels, thereby lowering the risk of exposing the public to infectious disease.

Disinfection is critical to the protection of public health, and ultraviolet (UV) disinfection is an effective, chemical-free, and proven option for wastewater treatment plants.

The Clean Ganga Project
The Government of India has made a commitment to clean up the Ganga River. This project, called the Clean Ganga Project, was started in 2014 after Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister of India.
The TrojanUV3000Plus™ is currently being installed at the Varanasi Sewage Treatment Plant in Uttar Pradesh, India to disinfect 120 MLD (5,000 m3 /hr) of wastewater before it discharges into the river.
