The Advantages Of Synthetic Quartz In TOC Systems

In the microelectronics industry, total organic carbon (TOC) reduction is crucial for ensuring the quality and purity of water used in manufacturing processes. One key factor in achieving effective TOC reduction is the choice of quartz material used in the TOC system.
Traditionally, mercury lamps have been the preferred source for TOC destruction due to their high efficiency at generating the necessary 185nm and 254nm emission lines. However, the short 185nm wavelength is strongly absorbed by many grades of quartz, reducing transparency and blocking the necessary photons.
The use of synthetic quartz in TOC reduction systems offers significant advantages in terms of improved transparency, enhanced TOC destruction, and reduced operational costs. With its superior performance and longevity, synthetic quartz is a valuable asset in the microelectronics industry and other applications requiring efficient drinking water disinfection.
