Patent number: 10787375Abstract: A solution for treating a fluid, such as water, is provided. An ultraviolet transparency of a fluid can be determined before or as the fluid enters a disinfection chamber. In the disinfection chamber, the fluid can be irradiated by ultraviolet radiation to harm microorganisms that may be present in the fluid. One or more attributes of the disinfection chamber, fluid flow, and/or ultraviolet radiation can be adjusted based on the transparency to provide more efficient irradiation and/or higher disinfection rates. In addition, various attributes of the disinfection chamber, such as the position of the inlet(s) and outlet(s), the shape of the disinfection chamber, and other attributes of the disinfection chamber can be utilized to create a turbulent flow of the fluid within the disinfection chamber to promote mixing and improve uniform ultraviolet exposure.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2018Date of Patent: September 29, 2020Assignee: Sensor Electronics Technology, Inc.Inventors: Saulius Smetona, Timothy James Bettles, Igor Agafonov, Ignas Gaska, Alexander Dobrinsky, Maxim S Shatalov, Arthur Peter Barber, III
