Abstract
Description
Equipo bacteriológico para tratamiento de agua.Bacteriological equipment for treatment of Water.
La presente invención se refiere a un equipo bacteriológico concebido para el tratamiento de agua, tanto en sistemas de refrigeración tales como torres de recuperación, acondicionadores evaporativos, condensadores evaporativos, etc., como en otros equipos que manipulen el agua, tales como piscinas, jacuzzis, cisternas y en general agua para consumo humano y animal.The present invention relates to equipment bacteriological designed for water treatment, both in cooling systems such as recovery towers, evaporative conditioners, evaporative condensers, etc., as in other equipment that manipulates water, such as swimming pools, Jacuzzis, cisterns and in general water for human consumption and animal.
El equipo resulta especialmente idóneo para la eliminación de la bacteria "Legionella Pneumophila", aunque está capacitado para eliminar todo tipo de virus y bacterias, basándose en la utilización de la irradiación germicida ultravioleta.The equipment is particularly suitable for the elimination of the " Legionella Pneumophila " bacteria, although it is capable of eliminating all types of viruses and bacteria, based on the use of ultraviolet germicidal irradiation.
Como es sabido, el componente ultravioleta de la luz solar es un germicida para los microbios existentes en el aire exterior, concretamente con ondas largas, del orden de 2.537 Angstroms, debido a la resonancia de esta onda larga con las estructuras moleculares, que generan la energía necesaria para romper el núcleo molecular orgánico, dando lugar a daños celulares o genéticos para los microorganismos.As is known, the ultraviolet component of the sunlight is a germicide for existing microbes in the air exterior, specifically with long waves, of the order of 2,537 Angstroms, due to the resonance of this long wave with the molecular structures, which generate the energy needed to break the organic molecular nucleus, leading to cell damage or Genetic for microorganisms.
El tiempo de exposición de los microorganismos a la radiación ultravioleta, para conseguir la eliminación de los mismos, es variable desde unos pocos segundos hasta varios minutos para la inmensa mayoría de ellos.The exposure time of microorganisms to ultraviolet radiation, to get rid of same, it varies from a few seconds to several minutes for the vast majority of them.
Esta irradiación germicida ultravioleta es indudablemente la más idónea, pero sin embargo hasta la fecha no puede ser puesta en práctica en muchos casos, especialmente en el caso del tratamiento de agua, debido a la dificultad de acceso de la luz ultravioleta a las zonas de ubicación del agua, o debido a que en el caso de volúmenes de agua importantes los microorganismos tienden a alejarse de la zona superficial evitando verse afectados por dicha radiación.This ultraviolet germicidal irradiation is undoubtedly the most suitable, but nevertheless not yet it can be implemented in many cases, especially in the case of water treatment, due to the difficulty of accessing ultraviolet light to water location areas, or due to that in the case of significant water volumes the microorganisms tend to move away from the surface area avoiding being affected by such radiation.
Esto trae consigo que en la actualidad el tratamiento de agua se lleve a cabo por medios químicos, concretamente utilizando productos químicos germicidas, lo que supone un considerable problema de contaminación medioambiental, que repercute de forma muy negativa a nivel de costos para los usuarios, los cuales pueden incluso llegar a ver perjudicada su propia salud.This brings with it that today the Water treatment is carried out by chemical means, specifically using germicidal chemicals, which It represents a considerable problem of environmental pollution, which has a very negative impact on the cost level for users, who may even be harmed by their own health
El equipo bacteriológico que la invención propone resuelve de forma plenamente satisfactoria la problemática anteriormente expuesta, permitiendo la utilización de la irradiación germicida ultravioleta en la esterilización de los microorganismos existentes en el agua, con unos óptimos resultados funcionales y con las ventajas que se derivan de utilizar este tipo de agente germicida.The bacteriological equipment proposed by the invention solves the problem fully satisfactorily previously exposed, allowing the use of the ultraviolet germicidal irradiation in sterilization of microorganisms in the water, with optimal results functional and with the advantages that come from using this type of germicidal agent.
Para ello y de forma más concreta en dicho equipo bacteriológico participa un aparato germicida consistente en un recipiente alargado dimensionalmente acorde para recibir en su seno a una o varias lámparas de luz ultravioleta, de potencia adecuada al caudal de agua a tratar y que ha de pasar a través de dicho recipiente alargado, concretamente a través de uno o más tubos de plástico transparente, recipiente que será opaco, para evitar la salida de luz ultravioleta al exterior y para que la eficacia de dicha luz sobre el agua que circula en su interior sea máxima.To do this and more specifically in said team bacteriological participates a germicidal apparatus consisting of a elongated container dimensionally consistent to receive in its breast to one or several ultraviolet light lamps, of adequate power to the water flow to be treated and that has to pass through said elongated container, specifically through one or more tubes of transparent plastic, container that will be opaque, to avoid ultraviolet light output to the outside and so that the effectiveness of said light on the water that circulates inside it is maximum.
Este recipiente está dotado en sus extremos de sendos racores para conexión de las conducciones de entrada y salida de agua a los citados tubos de vidrio, y en uno de tales extremos de un conector eléctrico para alimentación de la lámpara o lámparas de luz ultravioleta, a través de una reactancia y un cebador convenientemente alojados en una caja estanca, ajena al citado recipiente y relacionada con este último mediante una manguera con acoplamiento estanco en cada uno de sus extremos, contando además la citada caja estanca con un prensaestopas para el cable de entrada, que permite que dicha caja pueda ser sumergida con un índice mínimo de Protección IP-55 sin riesgo alguno para los componentes eléctricos alojados en su interior.This vessel is endowed at its ends with two fittings for connection of the inlet pipes and water outlet to said glass tubes, and in one such ends of an electrical connector for lamp power or ultraviolet light lamps, through a reactance and a primer conveniently housed in a sealed box, foreign to said container and related to the latter by means of a hose with watertight coupling at each end, also counting the aforementioned sealed box with a cable gland for the input cable, which allows said box to be submerged with a minimum protection rate of IP-55 without risk some for the electrical components housed inside.
Esta estructuración permite que el agua circule en proximidad a las lámparas de luz ultravioleta, afectando a todos los gérmenes existentes en el agua, durante un tiempo variable que evidentemente es función de la longitud del recipiente y de la velocidad del agua a su través, a su vez función del caudal.This structuring allows water to circulate in proximity to ultraviolet light lamps, affecting everyone the germs in the water, for a variable time that obviously it is a function of the length of the container and the water speed through it, in turn function of the flow rate.
