Dear Malik,
UV is the proper answer. Ozone is too expensive, chlroination is not efficient. If you want to apply physical filtration only, then UF is good, RO is not a disinfection method.
So the question is UV or UF in the end. If you have good ultraviolet transparency; UVT above 75% at least and no UV adosorbing agnets like dissolved iron (Fe3+) present or other heavy metals and low TSS then UV is the answer. In case UVT is too low then UF. IF TSS is too high you need a phase separation before disinfection...
Good luck!
Zsolt

No!. Chlorine is very efficient. UV is expensive and selective and leaves no residual disinfectant.
