此前，人们认为使用紫外线（UV）消毒4-log病毒 由于在试验中需要高剂量，灭活的成本很高 长期2强化地表水处理规则（LT2ESWTR）。 然而，最近的研究（Linden，2007）表明 4-log腺病毒失活的必要性约为40%至50% 低于LT2ESWTR中公布的多色时的剂量 使用紫外线灯（Linden等人，2007年）。最近使用 腺病毒2全面证明了这一点。 本研究评估了成本（即资本、运营和维护） 使用氯或紫外线消毒病毒的成本）和可持续性 使地下水和地表水失活。这项研究的结果 表明紫外线消毒是选择性消毒的一种经济有效的选择 情节。紫外线消毒也显示出对环境和环境的影响 与传统化学消毒相比，具有风险效益。包括9个参考文献和表格。

Previously, it was thought that using ultraviolet (UV) disinfection for 4-log virus inactivation would be cost prohibitive due to the high doses required in the Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (LT2ESWTR). However, recent studies (Linden, 2007) have shown that the dose necessary for 4-log adenovirus inactivation is approximately 40% to 50% lower than the doses published in the LT2ESWTR when polychromatic UV lamps are used (Linden et al 2007). A recent validation using adenovirus2 demonstrated this in full scale. This study evaluated the costs (i.e., capital, and operation and maintenance costs) and sustainability of using chlorine or UV disinfection for virus inactivation of groundwater and surface waters. The results of this study show that UV disinfection is a cost effective option for select disinfection scenarios. UV disinfection was also shown to have environmental and risk benefits when compared to traditional chemical disinfection. Includes 9 references, tables.
