Solutions for clean water: Continuous disinfection

Do you want to have a supply of potable water on a temporary site? To ensure irreproachable potability throughout your event, we recommend continuous water treatment.

Disinfection is the last step in treating drinking water before distribution. It enables the elimination of pathogenic microorganisms in the water. Some common germs may be left over in the water, as disinfection is not the same as sterilization (in sterilization, all germs present in an environment are killed).

There are two key steps in water disinfection, related to two different effects of a given disinfectant.

• Bactericidal effect: the capacity to kill germs at a given stage of treatment.

Remanent effect: the capacity to maintain a disinfectant effect until the drinking water is used. This means both bacteriostatic protection against bacterial regrowth and a bactericidal effect against low-level and occasional pollution affecting the network, as well as prevention of the development of micro-invertebrates that could have passed through the plant in resistant or reproductive forms.
