Abstract:
An apparatus and method for irradiating a fluid containing a material to be irradiated, comprising at least one irradiation chamber having at least one inlet port and outlet port, at least one fluid cooling chamber having at least one inlet port and outlet port, one or more UV radiation sources coupled to the irradiation chamber(s); and at least one heat exchange mechanism thermally coupled to the radiation source(s) and the cooling chamber(s). At least a portion of the interior surface of the cooling chamber(s) may comprise at least a portion of the exterior surface of the irradiation chamber(s) so the cooling chamber(s) is in fluid communication with the irradiation chamber(s).

Claim (Index 1):
An irradiation apparatus comprising:\n at least one irradiation chamber for a fluid containing a material to be irradiated, said chamber having at least one inlet port for fluid flow into the chamber and at least one outlet port for fluid flow out of the chamber; at least one cooling chamber having at least one inlet port for fluid flow into the chamber and at least one outlet port for fluid flow out of the chamber; one or more UV radiation sources coupled to the at least one irradiation chamber; and at least one heat exchange mechanism thermally coupled to the one or more radiation sources and to the at least one cooling chamber; wherein at least a portion of the interior surface of the at least one cooling chamber comprises at least a portion of the exterior surface of the at least one irradiation chamber, and the at least one cooling chamber is in fluid communication with the at least one irradiation chamber.
