Abstract:
The present invention concerns a method of estimating and optionally controlling the microbiological state in a process stream of an industrial process by measuring the concentration of dissolved oxygen or the rH value, or both, in said stream, the method including continuous or periodic sampling and online measurement. The invention also concerns a device suitable for use in implementing said method.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for reduction of the presence of microorganisms and/or decomposition of organic micropollutants in water using an energy source and an additive characterized in that the energy source is UV radiation and the additive comprises performic acid.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for preventing microbial growth on a filtration membrane during desalination process. The method comprises that the membrane is exposed to a low concentration of performic acid by continuously or intermittently introducing performic acid to the membrane surface. When performic acid is added according to the present invention to the water flow, there is no significant reduction in the water flux through the membrane.
