Having spent a fair amount of time trying to validate such systems in
pharmaceutical water plants, I'm highly dubious. It can be done, at
small flow rates and long exposures, but it is *sanitization* not
sterilization. Bacteria are fairly adept at repairing UV induced damage.
And UV doesn't kill the bacteria, typically, just makes them unable to
reproduce.


Keith, I noticed these small RO systems put in boats use quite a bit more
pressure than the commercial units, say for a muni water system. Wouldn't
that make them break down the dead bacterium much faster, releasing their
toxins into the water supply?
