Xylem experts discuss the latest treatment technologies with Water Online at WEFTEC 2026
Live from WEFTEC: Inside the New MiPro UVAOP Demonstration Skid and the Evotide Ozone System
Overview
Filmed on location at WEFTEC 2026, this Water Online Show episode features host Angela Godwin in conversation with two Xylem experts—Anthony Pimentel, Reuse and AOP Treatment Specialist, and Dee Adapa, Sr. Product Manager, Ozone—who walk viewers through the company's latest advancements in UV advanced oxidation and ozone treatment.
Segment 1: UV AOP for potable reuse
In the first segment, Anthony explains how UV Advanced Oxidation Process (UV AOP) is emerging as a critical technology for potable reuse, enabling utilities to remove trace organic contaminants and micropollutants. He introduces the new Wedeco MiPro UVAOP demonstration skid, co-developed with Intuitech—a fully integrated, validated pilot platform that combines our Spektron UV reactor, dual chemical dosing pumps, online analyzers, and instrumentation in a single flexible package designed to streamline pilot testing for water reuse, groundwater remediation, and taste-and-odor applications.
Segment 2: Ozone treatment innovations
In the second segment, Adappa dives into ozone technology and its expanding role across municipal and industrial water treatment, from micropollutant removal to advanced reuse workflows. She unveils the new Wedeco EvoTide ozone system, a compact, plug-and-play "ozone in a box" solution that simplifies operation with built-in IEEE 519 harmonic compliance, intuitive HMI interfaces, and a proven electrode design inherited from the predecessor SMO series. With Xylem's ozone technology celebrating its 50th anniversary, the conversation highlights the company's long-standing commitment to reliability, reduced maintenance downtime, and lower operating costs—making this episode essential viewing for water and wastewater professionals evaluating advanced treatment technologies.
