The ultraviolet driven disinfectant system, center, is attached to the wastewater treatment pilot testing system Variable amounts of effluent were sent through UV treatment for testing. Pilot tests determine feasibility of using UV to turn wastewater into drinking water Emission-free electric pumps with variable frequency drives were used. A s technology develops, California is using water in new and interesting ways. One Bay Area wastewater treatment plant opted to test the feasibility of a new ultraviolet disinfection process on effluent for reuse as potable water.. Engineers at a UV treatment company tapped Rain for Rent to provide pumps, pipe and system design for the pilot project. Wastewater was taken from the treatment plant and treated. To meet strict National Water
