As a professional manufacturer of customized quartz products, we have gained a deep understanding through years of foreign trade experience that quartz tubes play an indispensable and critical role in modern wastewater treatment processes. Its excellent physical and chemical properties provide efficient and reliable solutions to many water treatment problems.

Core application: How can quartz tubes empower wastewater treatment?

The application of quartz tubes in wastewater treatment is mainly due to their extremely high purity and excellent optical properties. The core application scenarios revolve around ultraviolet (UV) disinfection technology.

1. Core components of UV disinfection reactor:

In a closed UV disinfection reactor, a quartz tube serves as a protective sleeve and directly wraps around the UV lamp. High purity quartz glass allows high-intensity UVC ultraviolet rays (especially the 254nm sterilization peak wavelength) to efficiently penetrate and directly irradiate the flowing water, destroying the DNA/RNA of bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens in the water, rendering them inactive and unable to reproduce, thus achieving the purpose of disinfection.

2. Advanced oxidation treatment of high difficulty wastewater:

When treating industrial wastewater containing recalcitrant organic compounds, advanced oxidation processes based on UV light are used. In this process, quartz tubes not only need to transmit UV light, but sometimes also need to transmit vacuum ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 185nm to excite oxidants such as ozone, generate hydroxyl radicals, and completely decompose stubborn pollutants in water.

Product advantages: Why is quartz tube an ideal choice?

Compared to ordinary glass or other materials, quartz tubes exhibit unparalleled advantages in harsh water treatment environments:

Extremely high UV transmittance: we use high-purity fused silica material, and the UV transmittance is up to 90% or more, ensuring the minimum UV energy loss for sterilization and the maximum disinfection efficiency.

Excellent thermal stability: Quartz tubes can withstand drastic temperature changes (strong resistance to thermal shock) and will not explode under the instantaneous high temperature generated when the UV lamp is turned on and off.

Excellent chemical corrosion resistance: Sewage treatment environments are complex and often contain chemicals such as acids, alkalis, and chlorine. Quartz tubes have strong resistance to such corrosion, and long-term use will not cause fogging or corrosion, maintaining transparency.

High mechanical strength and durability: It has good compressive performance, can withstand certain water pressure, has a long service life, reduces replacement frequency and maintenance costs.

Problem solving: What industry pain points can quartz tubes address?

1. Alternative chemical disinfection to avoid secondary pollution: Compared with traditional chlorine disinfection, UV disinfection does not require the addition of any chemicals, does not produce toxic disinfection by-products, and produces safer and more environmentally friendly effluent.

2. Improve disinfection efficiency and reduce operating costs: The high transmittance quartz tube ensures efficient utilization of UV energy, achieving a sterilization rate of up to 99.99% in a very short contact time, with relatively controllable energy consumption and operating costs.

3. Dealing with complex water quality: Even in water with high chloride ion content or other corrosive properties to metals such as stainless steel, quartz sleeves can still work stably, solving the problem of metal sleeves being prone to corrosion and affecting light transmittance.

4. Ensure continuous and stable operation of the system: The durability and reliability of quartz tubes reduce equipment downtime and maintenance time, ensuring the continuous and stable discharge of sewage treatment plants that meet standards.

Customer real case (anonymous)

Our client from Europe has experienced a nearly 30% decrease in UV system efficiency due to the corrosion and scaling of the quartz casing used in their municipal wastewater treatment plant, which had been exposed to chlorine containing environments for a long time. After finding us, we analyzed the water quality report and customized an anti fouling quartz tube with a specially treated outer wall. After replacement, the UV transmittance of the water plant returned to the factory level, the disinfection effect remained stable and met the standard, and after one year of operation, the tube wall remained clean, greatly extending the cleaning cycle and saving customers a lot of maintenance costs.
