Abstract: A self-cleaning ultraviolet wastewater disinfection unit and method are provided. The disinfection unit has a wastewater treatment chamber comprising a UV lamp for treating/disinfecting the wastewater. A plurality of pieces of media may be positioned in the treatment chamber. When wastewater is present in the chamber, gas is injected into the wastewater through a gas inlet conduit. The gas agitates the pieces of media in the wastewater to cause the pieces of media to rub against the UV lamp unit to remove matter that has accumulated on the UV lamp unit. The removal of accumulated matter on the UV lamp and other surfaces in the chamber may improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the disinfecting unit. Furthermore, the cleaning operation may be performed automatically at scheduled periods to increase the time between major cleanings of the unit.

Abstract: A variety of applications for UV LEDs that are integrated into a system are described, where the UV light is used for disinfection of air or surfaces, or used to detect the scattering light by particles, or used for skin treatment. In one embodiment, a ceiling luminaire includes a sensor for detecting the presence of people in the room. The luminaire contains a first set of LEDs for generating white light, for illumination, and a second set of LEDs for generating UV light for disinfecting the room. When the sensor detects that no people are in the room, the system automatically controls the UV LEDs to turn on to disinfect the room. The white light LEDs may be independently controlled with a dimmer.

Abstract: A fluid-borne (e.g., water, air) biological and chemical hazard detection and treatment system can include sensors (e.g., flow rate, contaminant detectors), treatment using ultraviolet laser-emitted light, can be microprocessor controlled and can communicate and be controlled over data networks. Treatment and detection systems can be deployed at various stages along a fluid distribution system, allowing for protection coverage and redundancy. During treatment, fluid enters into and/or passes through a “treatment area” wherein the fluid is subjected to light emanating from a laser at wavelengths within the ultraviolet range. DNA for microorganisms contained within fluid (including blood) are reactive to laser light as they pass through treatment areas and are rendered un-infective. Treatment systems can be staged in close proximity, providing more than one treatment area and associated light sources to a fluid stream. Such staging can provide for concentrated redundancy prior to its delivery to the intended point of use.

Abstract: A water-borne hazard detection and notification system deployed between water treatment facilities and water's points of use can include sensors (e.g., flow rate, microorganism detectors, and chemical detectors) and can be microprocessor controlled. Sensors detect microorganisms and/or chemicals within a water distribution system. Treatment areas can be deployed at various stages along a water distribution system, allowing for protection redundancy. Detector and/or treatment systems can be networked to remote monitoring systems (e.g., networked data/communications equipment located with agencies operating and command and control units) through wired and/or wireless network communication means and devices. Data networked monitoring and assessment can enable rapid deployment of counter measures (e.g., valve shut-off, UV treatment, field team deployment). Systems can be staged, providing for a system comprising more than one detection, shut-off and/or treatment. Staging can provide for concentrated redundancy prior to delivery of water to its point of use.
