How TTA functions as a water sanitizing strategy
As a microbicide, TTA functions to kill majority of microorganisms present in water, preventing common water contaminants, biofilm on surfaces by activity of Ag nano particles and in conjunction with UV sanitation.
In Conjunction with Traditional UV light filters, TTA Beads can be used as an efficient filter medium. Increasing antimicrobial activity while adding oxidation of organic wastes.
Eradicating harmful free swimming bacteria and protozoans by adsorption of microbes on treated surfaces.
Oxidation of surface nitrogenous wastes into soluble nitrates.

Water tank methylene blue test
Testing Methods
Methylene blue solution produced using Pure methylene blue powder mixed with RO water.
Methylene Blue Concentration = 3ppm
0.21g Methylene Blue in 7L of RO water
[Total Amount of TTA treated glass beads] 98.4g ~ 98.4g / 0.165g = 596 No. beads
Total Area of TTA = 4πr x No. beads]
4 x 3.14 x 0.0025² = 0.0000785m²
596 x 0.0000785m² = 0.047m² or 4.7cm²
Start time – Monday 20th January 10:30am End Time – Monday 27th January 10:30am
