Drainage Water Disinfection Systems

Drainage water disinfection systems enable the safe treatment and reuse of drainage water generated in greenhouses and nurseries. These systems optimize water and fertilizer consumption while supporting environmentally friendly and sustainable production.

TURNED provides solutions based on NUF filtration and UV disinfection technologies, ensuring the effective recycling of drainage water. These systems eliminate harmful microorganisms and allow treated water to be safely reused within the irrigation system.

Reusing drainage water can pose risks due to the presence of pathogens. NUF and UV systems, in combination with hydrogen peroxide, break down the cellular structures of harmful organisms, converting them into harmless substances such as water and carbon dioxide. This process ensures effective disinfection without altering the chemical composition of the water.

The system enables safe recirculation of treated water and, when necessary, allows environmentally responsible discharge.

By recovering water and nutrients from drainage, these systems provide both economic and environmental benefits. Properly designed systems can achieve annual savings of 30% to 40% in water and fertilizer usage.

Systems used:

• NUF Filtration System
• Aqualux UV System

Benefits of the NUF system:

• Recovers up to 98% of irrigation water
• Reduces clean water costs
• Lowers fertilizer and nutrient consumption
• Minimizes wastewater disposal costs
• Supports environmentally sustainable production
• Contributes to natural resource conservation
• Provides biologically safe water without chemical, thermal, or biological treatment
• Prevents the spread of pathogens, viruses, and harmful microorganisms
