MASSPHOTON will participate in the 11th International Conference on Water Pollution and Treatment (ICWPT 2026), held in Tokyo from July 25–27, 2026, where it will present its latest research on a high-flow water disinfection module based on UVC LED technology. The study highlights a system designed for continuous, high-pressure operation, featuring a treatment capacity of 48 L/min, ozone-free disinfection, and stable performance under pressures up to 1.0 MPa. Microbiological validation using Escherichia coli demonstrates a consistent 5-log (99.999%) inactivation efficiency under continuous flow conditions. This work addresses key limitations of conventional disinfection methods in high-flow applications and provides a reliable, chemical-free solution for municipal and industrial water treatment. The conference will serve as a platform for MASSPHOTON to share its latest advancements and engage with global experts in water pollution control and treatment.
MASSPHOTON has been selected for the KAUST ScaleX soft-landing program, a highly competitive global initiative with an acceptance rate of less than 2%. This milestone supports the company’s expansion into the Middle East by leveraging KAUST’s research ecosystem and local market resources to advance the deployment of GaN-based technologies, including UVC disinfection and smart water treatment solutions, aligned with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030.
On January 18, 2026, MASSPHOTON participated in the Biotech Investment Forum organized by Fakeeh Care Group in Riyadh. CEO Dr. Eason Liao delivered a pitch highlighting the company’s GaN-based UVC LED platform. The presentation focused on three sustainable, mercury-free solutions: real-time air disinfection, scalable water treatment, and rapid surface sterilization for healthcare environments. MASSPHOTON aims to advance pilot evaluations in Saudi Arabia through continued partnership with Fakeeh Care Group, supporting the Kingdom's vision for biotech innovation.
Since ultraviolet light was first used for drinking water disinfection in 1910, this technology has been widely applied in the food and beverage industry. UVC ultraviolet light (wavelength 200–280 nm) can effectively inactivate microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, algae, and protozoa wit
Microbial contamination poses a major threat to public health. Ultraviolet disinfection, particularly in the UVC band (200–280 nm), achieves rapid microbial inactivation by damaging DNA/RNA and is recognized as a highly efficient physical disinfection method.

UV water treatment is a safe, chemical-free method that effectively kills bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and algae, ensuring clean and pathogen-free water.
There’s nothing more unsettling than walking into your bedroom and being hit by a persistent musty odor. No matter how often you clean, wash the bedsheets, or open the windows, that damp, earthy smell lingers on. It can make even the most beautifully decorated room feel uncomfortable and unhygienic.

This article explores the application of UVC LED technology in ultrapure water (UPW) systems, specifically focusing on its effectiveness in reducing Total Organic Carbon (TOC). It examines the sources of TOC in critical industries like semiconductor manufacturing and pharmaceuticals, and explains the mechanisms through which UVC LEDs degrade organic contaminants: direct photolysis, indirect photo-oxidation, and microbial byproduct control. The article also highlights the advantages of UVC LEDs over traditional mercury lamps—such as being mercury-free, compact, and energy-efficient—and discusses their future outlook as a key technology for next-generation water quality management.
