A molecularly implanted stimulated emitter (MISE) device in which high levels of ultraviolet radiation are applied to contamination in a contained fluid environment. The MISE device is primarily for use in a system for reducing biological organisms, such as virions and spores, in a liquid effluent to non-viable organic molecules, but it also can be used to drive chemical reactions, especially those to reduce the toxicity of toxic materials. The MISE device includes at least one ultraviolet source, such as a mercury vapor UV lamp, and secondary ultraviolet sources that absorb the peak UV frequencies of the lamp and emitting UV at other frequencies to fill in areas of the spectrum that are only weakly produced by the lamp. In this way, ultraviolet radiation is supplied at frequencies that are readily absorbed and operate to disassociate any viable DNA and RNA strands in the fluid, to thereby cause "death". Varying magnetic fields, which are rapidly switched in polarity acting on the electric fields and then vibrated are also applied to the contamination to increase its susceptibility to UV and to increase the efficiency of the UV lamp.
