Disinfection technologies
Demitec® Ultra Violet disinfection
Sources for naturally clean water are becoming increasingly rare, making it one of the world’s most valuable resources. Without proper disinfection, water is likely to contain dangerous pathogens, including Cryptosporidium and Giardia.
Disinfection using ultraviolet (UV) light is a proven, chemical-free, environmentally friendly, and sustainable method for killing pathogens and water-infecting microorganisms. Hatenboer-Water specializes in providing the optimal solution for the toughest water disinfection challenges.
Water, essential for life
The importance of water to life is self-evident. However, water is also one of the major sources of infection, and the cause of many forms of illness. Bacteria, algae, and other microorganisms can grow extremely quickly in water, and just like food, water deteriorates. The safety of drinking water aboard ships and rigs cannot be taken for granted. Drinking water treated with Hadex® remains fit for consumption.
Hadex® by HATENBOER-WATER
Hatenboer-Water offers under the Hadex® brand:
- Hadex® drinking water disinfectant; available in 1, 2.5, 10, and 25-liter polycans.
- Hadex® dosing units; a wide range of dosing units.
Safe drinking water
Hadex® keeps your drinking water in a healthy condition. It is food-grade and is approved as a continuous disinfectant in drinking water. Hadex® prevents water wastage and saves time, as opposed to other disinfecting agents that are harmful, dangerous, and/or difficult to dose. Because of the overall action of Hadex® in water, it also disinfects the tanks, pipelines, and all water-fed equipment. It keeps your crew healthy.
Characteristics
HADEX® is not only a safe, effective, and easily applied product but, compared with other products, it has even more advantages.
- It has a very long shelf life: 18 months under normal conditions (T=25°C) and 3 years if stored cool (T ≤ 6°C).
- Approvals: Hadex® has been tested and approved by a number of (maritime) authorities in the Netherlands and abroad.
Hadex® dosing unit
For optimum dosing of Hadex, Hatenboer-Water has designed Hadex Dosing Units. A range of automatic Hadex® dosing units is available. The standard Hadex® dosing units are proportionally controlled, by the use of pulse-generating flow meters.
Hadex® is ready for immediate use upon delivery. Because it is a pure, stable, and safe product, it facilitates swift and accurate dosing. As it is a liquid product that mixes quickly and easily with water, it can be added simply to the water through the filling pipe or through the tank opening. Hadex® starts disinfecting immediately, and the water is ready for consumption after a short period of only 30 minutes when applying the normal dosing.
Water Quality
Hatenboer-Water recommends testing your onboard water periodically for bacteriological quality, especially in the case of new installations or when repairs have been carried out. Hatenboer-Water can arrange worldwide sampling, analysis, and reporting, which is carried out according to official standards.

What standards should one expect of an effective drinking water disinfectant?
- It should swiftly destroy any harmful organisms and should remain active for a sufficiently long period.
- It should have no adverse effects on water quality and should not allow the water to become corrosive.
- It should be cost-effective per cubic meter of treated water.
