Environmental Contaminant Treatment
Over the last decade, Trojan has refined and optimized the use of UV technology for the treatment of chemical contaminants in water. UV, either alone or in combination with hydrogen peroxide, destroys contaminants in a variety of applications including drinking water, wastewater recycling, and groundwater remediation.
Increasingly, water providers are taking advantage of this dual capability of UV light to simultaneously disinfect and treat contaminants such as taste and odor-causing compounds, nitrosamines, pesticides and algal toxins.
Trojan’s installation base of municipal and industrial UV systems performing Environmental Contaminant Treatment (ECT) continues to grow. A variety of water treatment facilities throughout the world employ the TrojanUVPhox™ for the treatment of various contaminants. One example is the Orange County Water District’s Groundwater Replenishment (GWR ) System in Fountain Valley, California (USA). At the GWR System, the TrojanUVPhox™ purifies wastewater intended for reinjection into area drinking water aquifers. The GWR system provides up to 70 million gallons per day (MGD) of purified recycled water for augmentation of local drinking water supplies in highly water-stressed southern California. The TrojanUVPhox™ disinfects and destroys trace contaminants that pass through the reverse osmosis membrane treatment system.
Another example of a Trojan municipal ECT installation is the PWN Water Supply Company’s Andijk Drinking Water Facility in the Netherlands. The TrojanUVSwift™ECT has acted as a barrier to pesticides while disinfecting at this 25 MGD facility since 2004. As drinking water regulations for pesticides in Europe are particularly stringent, the TrojanUVSwift™ECT is responsible for removing any pesticides that may be present in the lake water to below 0.1 microgram per liter. The Trojan system has performed this task reliably and efficiently since its installation, and PWN has installed a second TrojanUVSwift™ECT at a sister facility in nearby Heemskerk.
Each installation is backed by extensive performance guarantees, and Trojan provides application expertise and optimization as treatment goals and site conditions change over time. Trojan also provides full-service supply of hydrogen peroxide to support UV-oxidation installations.

TrojanUVPhox
The TrojanUVPhox™ (UV-Photolysis and UV-Oxidation) solution is a groundbreaking, pressurized ultraviolet (UV) light reactor that utilizes Trojan’s high-output, monochromatic amalgam UV lamps.TrojanUVSwiftECT
The TrojanUVSwift™ECT is a hydraulically optimized, polychromatic lamp-based UV reactor for use in the treatment of environmental contaminants. It is suitable for removing contaminants from large flow rates within a compact footprint.
Indirect Potable Reuse
The reuse of wastewater for augmentation of drinking water supplies (a process known as “indirect potable reuse”) is rapidly gaining support as a means of achieving a sustainable water supply and for protection against drought.Seasonal Taste & Odor Treatment
When algae blooms die in late summer/early fall, chemicals such as geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (MIB) are released causing water to smell and taste earthy or musty.Contaminant Treatment
Water sources, groundwater and surface water, are increasingly impacted by contamination. With population pressures, climate change, and overuse making every water source important, water providers are increasingly looking to advanced treatment...Groundwater Remediation
In many areas, localized releases of industrial chemicals, pesticides, petroleum additives such as MTBE, and fuel components such as benzene and hydrazine, have impaired groundwater quality. These groundwater “plumes” are commonplace...
