Washington, DC-MD-VA-WV (1888PressRelease) December 08, 2013 - On December 16, 2013, IUVA will sponsor a seminar, "Ultraviolet Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs): International Experience and Perspectives at the Imperial College, London, UK from 9:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Cost is £300 for non-members and £225 for members. Exhibitor space and Sponsorships are available.

This will be an excellent opportunity to learn about actual use of AOPs to disinfect water supplies by destroying organic matter and specific micro-pollutants in water. Numerous case studies will be presented of UV AOP usage in the US, UK and Europe. A panel on industry experts will discuss the design of devices and equipment and pros and cons of advanced oxidation processes. There will be time for questions and answers after presentations.
