  • Lamp cooling for a UV lamp reactor assembly
    Patent number: 5505912
    Abstract: This invention relates to an improved cooling system for a reactor having ultraviolet (UV) lamps, the radiation from which treats a fluid medium, for example, water, air or solvent. More particularly, the reactor system is adapted to treat contaminants in the fluids by use of UV emitting lamps which operate at high temperatures normally in excess of 300.degree. C.

  • Methods of catalytic photooxidation
    Patent number: 5324438
    Abstract: A process for oxidizing a compound comprises contacting the compound with iodide ions and irradiating the iodide ions with UV light of a wavelength sufficient to generate iodine atoms. The compound is then oxidized with the resulting iodine atoms. The iodine atoms are reduce to iodide ions as a result of the oxidation of the compound.
