mitchelhansen — Tue, 09 Dec 2025 18:38:26 +0000

Clean Drinking Water for Remote Farming Communities in Nicaragua

Overview

With support from an American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) microgrant, AquiSense Application Engineer, Andrea Martinez, traveled to Nicaragua to demonstrate the impact of UV-C LED disinfection in rural settings. She conducted pre-and-post on-site microbial testing to document improvements in water safety and quality. The project highlights how advanced UV-C LED systems create meaningful improvements in the daily life of remote and underserved communities by providing cost effective, chemical free drinking water disinfection in remote areas.

Problem

Farms, workers, and surrounding communities near Chinandega, Nicaragua, have long depended on untreated well water for drinking and daily tasks. Many farms are located far from population centers, which makes chlorine treatment both costly and difficult to sustain. In remote areas, access, transportation, and storage barriers, as well as irregular dosing often creates inconsistent treatment, leaving workers and families exposed to waterborne pathogens. Additionally, since it is not the standard, locals are not accustomed to the taste of chlorinated water, making it difficult to adopt. Alternatively, communities can transport clean water from off-site. However, this requires routine trips to population centers to obtain stores of clean water, adding significant time and cost to daily
operations.

Innovation

The PearlAqua Deca 30C requires no chemicals, no transport of consumables, and minimal maintenance, making it ideal for decentralized water treatment in remote settings. Its compact design allows for on-demand microbial inactivation without the operational challenges of chlorine treatments or the time and cost
of transporting water from population centers with treated water. Through an AIHA microgrant, Andrea worked with her former LSU professor, Samuel Snow, during on-site microbial testing before and after the PearlAqua Deca 30C units were installed.

Result

The PearlAqua Deca 30C units achieved immediate reductions in microbial contamination and delivered disinfected water directly to farm workers, animals, and nearby residents. Testing results provided clear evidence of significant improvement in water safety in the farm’s well water by demonstrating the removal of coliforms present in the well water prior to installation*. The PearlAqua Deca 30C provides a cost effective and reliable alternative to chlorine disinfection. The systems removed the recurring cost and logistical burden of both pre-treated water transport and on-site chlorine treatment, creating a more
sustainable and dependable solution for rural communities. The project reinforced the connection between everyday application engineering and real-world
human impact that manifests the powerful role of UV-C LED technology in expanding safe water access in underserved regions.

Overview

Isla Urbana, a nonprofit organization in Mexico, works with the government to install rainwater harvesting systems utilizing UV-C LED PearlAqua Micro in public schools. These systems provide clean drinking water to students, staff and families. Isla Urbana’s impactful rainwater initiatives are improving access to clean drinking water and transforming the way schools approach water use and conservation.

Problem

In Mexico, 1 out of 4 schools lack access to a reliable and high-quality water source. 22 million Mexicans lack access to piped water in their homes (INEGI, 2021). Unfortunately, the lack of access to clean water often takes a larger toll on children, due to them being more susceptible to waterborne illnesses.

Innovation

Rainwater harvesting systems can provide clean rainwater for up to 12 months in rural areas and up to 8 months in urban areas. Isla Urbana equips schools with the tools and resources needed to capture and use rainwater, while educating communities with a deeper understanding of water conservation. The PearlAqua Micro 12C AutoMate UV-LED system has a capacity to treat up to 2.1 GPM. In combination with pre-filtration, the system ensures that the rainwater that is harvested is safe for human consumption.

Result

The UN estimates that the world will face a 40% water deficit by 2030. Rainwater harvesting enhances community autonomy by collecting, treating and storing
clean water, ensuring resilience amid a declining resource. By educating students, faculty, and parents about sustainable water practices, the program empowers communities to become advocates for change, promoting a shift toward environmental sustainability and water stewardship. Schools in Nuevo León, Michoacán, Jalisco, Morelos, Mexico State, Mexico City and Oaxaca have benefited from this initiative, ensuring that more students have access to the
water they need for life and learning.

Municipal Drinking Water: Glitrevannverket & Rambøll

mitchelhansen — Thu, 13 Mar 2025 15:38:34 +0000

Norwegian Drinking Water Utility Glitrevannverket is Working with Danish Engineering Consultancy Rambøll to Pilot AquiSense PearlAqua Kilo for UV-C LED for large-Scale Water Disinfection

Overview

An international collaboration linking the US and European water industries is helping to accelerate the use of UV-C LED technology for municipal scale water disinfection. Norwegian utility Glitrevannverket is collaborating with Danish engineering consultancy Rambøll and UV-C LED market leader AquiSense Incorporated, to test multiple units designed for municipal and industrial water disinfection. The innovation project is partly funded by the Norwegian Institute of Public Health.

Problem

Water utilities seek alternatives to traditional mercury-based lamps, with mercury use and mining facing restrictions and a potential ban in the future. Currently, 98 percent of the UV disinfection market uses mercury-based systems, but these face global usage restrictions over the next few years, with an eventual mining ban expected in 2032, as set out by the Minamata Convention on Mercury. The convention adopted in 2013 and entered into force in 2017, aims to reduce mercury pollution, which is one of the World Health Organization’s top 10 chemicals of ‘major public concern’.

Innovation

A PearlAqua Kilo unit integrates LEDs into a unique and compact design without the use of chemicals or mercury-based UV lamps. This will ensure the water treatment in the facility is future-proofed against any regulatory changes affecting mercury usage. The PearlAqua Kilo offers municipal and industrial level disinfection with flowrates up-to 6 MGD (22,712 m3/D).

The pilot project at the Setervann water treatment facility near Asker, Norway, is conducting extensive testing and analysis to assess the technical, operative, and economic performance and implications for deploying UV-C LED technology. This site was chosen for its comparable water quality to many of Norway’s water sources. Outcomes will provide valuable insights and recommendations into adapting and the potential of implementing UV-LED technology across Norwegian water treatment systems and beyond.

Result

The project will evaluate technical performance, operation stability, and cost efficiency to guide future implementation of UV-C LED solutions for Norwegian municipalities.

“Glitrevannverket supplies drinking water to 160,000 people, which is a large scale in Norway. We see it as our responsibility to monitor the development and testing of new technology. The Setervann water treatment plant is a reserve water source and not needed in daily use. This makes it ideal for a controlled study of the UV-LED equipment at different operating conditions without any impact on the regular water supply. We look forward to receiving results in this project and to share our experiences with the water industry” says an excited managing director Marius Asheim. “Water is our most important nutrient, and we must always look for better ways to ensure safe drinking water.”

Wastewater Discharge: Dalhousie/Halifax Water

mitchelhansen — Tue, 11 Mar 2025 20:08:46 +0000

Dalhousie Researchers Prove UV-C LED Efficacy in Wastewater Treatment

Overview

The gold standard for wastewater disinfection relies on UV light to destroy or deactivate harmful microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, and protozoa. During the final step of treatment, wastewater is bathed in a blast of ultraviolet (UV) light before returning to our waterways. It’s effective, but mercury vapor lamps that currently illuminate the process use a lot of energy, soil easily, and come with large price tags for maintenance, replacement and disposal.

Problem

Mercury UV lamps produce a lot of heat, and in a wastewater system, there is material in the water that builds up on them, causing fouling. This results in large operation and maintenance costs in cleaning the lamps, which is a significant burden on operations.

The mercury inside the lamps is a neurotoxin dangerous for people and the planet. The UN Environment Program’s Minamata Convention is set to ban mercury mining by 2032, ending the needed supply by the industry. Responsibly disposing of mercury lamps is costly and complicated, often causing stockpiled lamps, storage costs, and potential risks.

Innovation

The efficacy of UV-C LEDs for municipal wastewater disinfection was piloted using a large-scale installation at a functioning wastewater facility. An NSERC Alliance Advantage grant brought Dalhousie University, Halifax Water and a coalition of public and private organizations together with AquiSense, Incorporated.

The chemical and mercury free PearlAqua Tera provides maximum environmental protection without risks to the people and the environment. It features a replaceable LED lamp that has stable UV-C output power, advanced cooling, and optimizes consistency and lifetime of the unit. A remote I/O interface for advanced analytic, and real-time UV intensity monitoring provides data on the systems’ performance. Instant on/off capabilities, unlimited on/off cycling and low maintenance, provides extended treatment without extra cost on parts, maintenance, storage or disposal. Targeted UV-C light without high temperatures minimizes effluence that fouls traditional mercury lamp systems.

Result

The PearlAqua Tera full-scale, 280 nm UV-C LED reactor was tested for wastewater disinfection at flows of 545 and 817 m3 day−1. The system achieved a > 3 average log reduction of total coliform at 545 m3 day−1 and the 817 m3 day−1 flow rate achieved over a > 2.5 average log reduction for all operational conditions. The delivered fluence of the full-scale system ranged from 28 to 148 mJ cm−2 and aligns with a UV auditing study that was conducted prior to the installation of the wastewater reactor. Results benchmark the performance achievable by UV-C LED disinfection and further connect bench-scale disinfection results with full-scale performance.

Research demonstrates that UV LEDs are an effective wastewater disinfectant at-scale and are comparable to conventional mercury lamp systems. The PearlAqua Tera is environmentally sustainable, more energy efficient, uses less space and has on/off capabilities that extend the lifetime of the LEDs. The capacity of UV-C LEDS can reduce capital investment and has substantial operational and maintenance savings over the lifetime of the system.

“In the next few years, we expect to see this UV LED technology used at full scale, and it could be transformative for Halifax Water and the entire industry,” says Dr. Krkosek, acting director of environment, health and safety with Halifax Water. “We are proud to be at the forefront of this research with Dr. Gagnon and Dalhousie and to know that our commitment to innovation will create greater operational efficiencies that will ultimately benefit our customers.”

Remote Bio-Organic Water Filtration Systems: AFX & FRPG

mitchelhansen — Fri, 07 Mar 2025 21:14:32 +0000

Remote Bio-Organic Water Filtration Systems - AXF & FRPG

Overview

AXF Solutions, a UK technology developer and the Red Proyecto Gente Foundation (FRPG), a non-profit organization registered in Colombia, have developed and distributed water disinfection systems utilizing UV-C LED PearlAqua Micro units, to remote families in rainforests and Andean regions.

Innovation

Powered by both solar energy and mains electricity, these systems employ bio-organic filtration and UV-C LED technologies to effectively replace chlorine and provide off-grid communities with safe drinking water. This sustainable system positively impacts the health of communities and families in rural areas and reduces plastic waste associated with bottled water.

Each bio-filter is manually fed from the top of the big blue tank with harvested water from rain, local rivers or ponds. It circulates by gravity from the bottom to the top thru a mix of locally sourced sand and different kinds of gravel, and goes out via a pipe where the water passes through the pre-installed PearlAqua Micro. The UV-C LED emits wavelengths from 200 nm – 280 nm that penetrate cells and damage the nucleic acid, rendering them microbiologically inactive before dispensing safe water that is ready for consumption.

Result

They are implemented on technology transfer programs, where communities learn the different local sources of water available to them, understand their quality, risks and benefits and how to care for it. Families are involved in the construction and maintenance of the bio-organic filter and can filter over 80 liters of safe-drinking water a day. This is a big improvement for individuals and communities who previously had no access or limited access to water prior to receiving this system.

These programs last over 6 months with each community, serving anywhere from 20 to 40 families depending on the needs. Households are in remote conditions and sometimes difficult to access. Systems are often transported using mules or farm animals to difficult to access areas.

Wastewater Reuse: Nueva Sucina Water Treatment Plant

mitchelhansen — Fri, 07 Mar 2025 19:45:01 +0000

Nueva Sucina Water Treatment Plant in Murcia Spain

Overview

Murcia is an area of extreme water stress in Spain and Europe due to high agricultural use and a prolonged historical drought. Water demand in this territory is higher than the quantity available. In semi-arid regions, like Murcia, water reuse has demonstrated the most sustainable alternative to the use of desalinated seawater or imported water in both economic and environmental impact. However, high cost, demanding quality requirements, and limited use, are barriers to its application.

In 2020 (EU 741/2020), the European Commission created a regulatory framework, establishing minimum quality requirements for reclaimed water intended for agricultural irrigation. This new European directive is more restrictive than existing regulations in Spain and mandatory as of 2023.

Problem

The LIFE WARRIOR Project, co-financed by the LIFE program of the European Commission, is working with Cetaqua Water technology Center and Aguas de Murcia (EMUASA) and Aquatec to create an innovative, sustainable and cost-effective water recuperation train to ensure that recovered water is safe for crop irrigation, in line with European Regulations.

Innovation

Reused ultrafiltration membranes from drinking water treatment plants are paired with UV-C LED technology to meet quality standards. AquiSense PearlAqua Kilo provides robust design, mercury free operation, low cost of ownership and maintenance, and chemical-free disinfection in a small, self-contained unit. Automatic on/off switching provides the ability to instantaneously turn the LEDs on/off with no restriction on the number of cycles per day. No warmup period gives operators more control over system use. All replacement parts are designed to be isolated from the reaction chamber while still pressurized. Operators simply remove a few external fixtures to remove the lamp assembly and reattach a new lamp module. The technology allows for all electronic lamp drivers to be housed in the same assembly, thus negating the need for an additional ballast cabinet and interconnecting cabling. This significantly reduces the system footprint, installation complexity and cost.

Advanced thermal management with the PearlAqua Kilo’s UV-C LED lamp design, the light emitting surface is completely isolated from the thermal emitting surface. This allows users to limit heat induced fouling and maintain stable thermal management under all ambient and process water conditions. Elimination of concern for handling or breaking a mercury lamp, and no mercury- based health hazards to employees or the environment.

LIFE WARRIOR’s digital tool also provides a decision support system to aid in estimating and extending the lifespan of ultrafiltration membranes and calculate risk with digital sanitary safety plans.

Result

It is estimated that the cost of treatment is reduced by 15% compared to other conventional alternatives. Likewise, the application of this solution is expected to reduce CO2 emissions from these processes by 35%. This new reuse system makes it possible to comply with the new European regulations on quality of reclaimed water for agricultural use and allows the reuse of more than 80% of treated municipal wastewater for crop irrigation.

Groundwater Treatment: Las Vegas Valley Water

mitchelhansen — Fri, 07 Mar 2025 18:30:37 +0000

Las Vegas Valley Water District and Southern Nevada Water Authority

Overview

The 500-square mile Las Vegas Valley is home to a population of more than 2 million residents. Water supply comes from Lake Mead, the local aquifer and reclaimed water.

The Las Vegas Valley Water District (LVVWD) is the water service provider for the city of Las Vegas and unincorporated Clark County. The Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA), located in Las Vegas, is a regional entity comprised of seven water and wastewater agencies, including the Las Vegas Valley Water District. SNWA is responsible for water treatment and delivery, as well as acquiring and managing long-term water resources for Southern Nevada. The team at SNWA’s Water Quality Research and Development center work to improve the quality of drinking water, including testing and evaluation of new water treatment methods.

Problem

Las Vegas Valley is in the midst of the longest sustained drought seen along the Colorado River. Permanent aridification impacts the amount of water being produced and the amount of water that communities are using. Water reductions across every single sector across the Colorado River basin is necessary to continue to hold on as a basin. Changes to Lake Mead levels requires strategies for water quality changes and changes in water resources to understand how water quality may change and to plan how to ensure a continued supply of the highest quality water possible.

Innovation

Design innovation included ray tracing, computational fluid dynamics, thermal simulation, circuit board layout and materials stress analysis. The PearlAqua Tera is one of the first full-scale UV-C LED reactor for municipal use and it was the first in the Americas and also one of the first in the world. AquiSense developed the PearlAqua Tera to handle municipal and industrial level disinfection with flowrates up to 6 MGD (22,712 m3/D) and to withstand the environmental conditions for an outdoor municipal water treatment reactor.

Operational benefits specific to LEDs, including a robust design, mercury free operation, low cost of ownership and maintenance, and chemical-free disinfection in a small, self-contained unit. Automatic on/off switching provides the ability to instantaneously turn the LEDs on/off with no restriction on the number of cycles per day. No warmup period gives operators a lot more control over systems use. All replacement parts are designed to be isolated from the reaction chamber while still pressurized. Operators simply remove a few external fixtures to remove the lamp assembly and reattach a new lamp module. The technology allows for all electronic lamp drivers to be housed in the same assembly, thus negating the need for an additional ballast cabinet and interconnecting cabling. This significantly reduces the system footprint, installation complexity and cost.

Advanced thermal management with the PearlAqua Tera’s UV-C LED lamp design, the light emitting surface is completely isolated from the thermal emitting surface. This allows users to limit heat induced fouling and maintain stable thermal management under all ambient and process water conditions.

No concern for handling or breaking a mercury lamp breaking and no mercury- based health hazards to employees or, worst case, the downstream water flow.

Result

PearlAqua Tera is installed at a groundwater well and it works just as well as a conventional reactor with mercury-based lamps but with the benefit of not having mercury-based hazards or drawbacks. A reactor with instant on/off capabilities, no warm up period and no restriction to cycles per day. Reactors have a small footprint, efficient maintenance and are chemical and mercury-free.

AquiSense and LVVWD currently are pursuing funded projects focused on validation and demonstrating feasibility.

“Delivering the highest quality water we possibly can means going above and beyond what is conventional,” Ariel Atkinson, project manager – applied water quality research at SNWA explained. “One of the things we do in R&D is assess innovative water treatment methods and particularly ones we think could potentially impact our field, as well as our organization. We think UV LED absolutely is the future, and we are early adopters of beneficial groundbreaking technology.”
