We are evaluating low pressure mercury lamps and excimer lamp systems, as well as VUV reactor configuration and process considerations, in order to improve the energy efficiency of photolytic water treatment.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cecas.clemson.edu\/~ecates\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/xenon-lamp.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cecas.clemson.edu\/~ecates\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/xenon-lamp-733x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-884\" width=\"205\" height=\"286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cecas.clemson.edu\/~ecates\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/xenon-lamp-733x1024.jpg 733w, https:\/\/cecas.clemson.edu\/~ecates\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/xenon-lamp-215x300.jpg 215w, https:\/\/cecas.clemson.edu\/~ecates\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/xenon-lamp-768x1073.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cecas.clemson.edu\/~ecates\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/xenon-lamp-624x872.jpg 624w, https:\/\/cecas.clemson.edu\/~ecates\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/xenon-lamp.jpg 881w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 205px) 100vw, 205px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vacuum ultraviolet photons (VUV; wavelength&lt;200 nm) have energies greater than most chemical bond energies and thus offer a relatively simple means of degrading water contaminants via direct photolysis.
