Abstract

With two field tests having successfully proved the effectiveness of the technology, we achieved the original project objective. After the DCW generator was activated, we observed a drastic reduction in the number of Legionella bacteria, although the temperature in both cases was lower than permitted in Denmark.
We know many buildings in Denmark have difficulty maintaining a constant temperature of 50°C in their hot water systems and lack the resources to upgrade these systems. However, one could solve these problems, if tackled correctly, by legalising the installation of hypochlorous acid (HOCL) units and thus eliminating reliance on high temperatures to combat bacteria.
