Before long, there will be an European directive issued that all irrigation water in Europe will have to be recycled. Recycled water, because of the already present nutrients, recycled water is a good culture medium for algae and fungi. An ultra violet (UV disinfection installation is often used to destroy all kinds of bacteria and fungi. But the presence of masses of algae which are not killed by the UV treatment renders the water non transparent and because of the low UV light penetration, no optimal performance can be obtained from the UV installation.                  

The LG SONIC Tank, however sees to it that the algae are killed and drift away or can be removed easily so that the water stays clear and the disinfection takes place as intended.

Moreover, the power consumption of the of the UV high-pressure lamp can be drastically money saving reduced as it needs less power to reach its optimal capacity.

 

The LG SONIC Tank is in many respects similar to the LG SONIC Pool, the only difference is the casing of the transducer, which is constructed in such a way that if the transducer will touch the bottom of the tank (or any container) the beaming part cannot be closed off.

 

The market 

The main market for the LG SONIC Tank is the horticulture or market-gardening industry, growers of  plants, flowers, fruits, vegetables etc., who use water for irrigation, sprinkling, spraying etc., where algae might cause clogging in parts of the installation.
