Acuva Technologies is developing efficient and compact ultraviolet light emitting diode based water purification systems that can operate at low power (battery/solar operated) and are practically maintenance-free. Acuva’s systems effectively transforms water treatment systems by:
- Offering a superior technology and replacing UV lamps in current water treatment.
- Creating new market spaces currently inaccessible by other incumbent technologies including UV-lamp reactors and reverse osmosis systems.
- Unlocking more reliable and efficient water treatment reactor designs that operate at low power and voltage.
How Technology Works
UV-LED technology directly destroys microbial DNA for effective water purification. Our UV water purification system eliminates the reproduction capability of harmful microbes by disrupting their DNA. By harnessing and concentrating the UV rays emitted from LEDs into water flow, we have achieved efficient DNA damage and water purification while simultaneously reducing power usage.
