Sunlight-mediated inactivation of health-relevant microorganisms in water: A review of mechanisms and modeling approaches

Tamar Kohn, Krista Rule Wigginton, Yang Liu

Health-relevant microorganisms present in natural surface waters and engineered treatment systems that are exposed to sunlight can be inactivated by a complex set of interacting mechanisms. The net impact of sunlight depends on the solar spectral irradianc ...
