This book was released on 2004 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this project was to discuss the potential advantages associated with booster disinfection, the kinetics of chlorine decay and trihalomethane (THM) formation under rechlorination conditions, and the use of network hydraulic and water quality models to locate booster disinfection stations and determine their dose characteristics. The following are highlights from the research: A laboratory procedure was proposed for analyzing chlorine decay under simulated booster conditions. An initial set of experiments evaluated disinfectant decay under booster conditions, and found it to be dependent on both the magnitude and time of the boost dose. THM formation under booster conditions showed no long-term reduction for any set of results, indicating THM formation is not solely dependent on disinfectant concentration. In booster chloramination, boosting with chlorine appeared to be very successful at producing and maintaining a low ammonia concentration by recombining with the ammonia formed from chloramine decay. A second-order model, including a reaction component that represents natural organic matter, was developed to describe chlorine decay and THM formation under booster conditions. A method was developed to determine good locations and schedules for multiple booster doses by a systematic evaluation of alternative designs using network models. By exploring the disinfection decay kinetics under rechlorination, and developing methods for booster chlorination systems design, the project results will assist utilities and consultants in making better use of booster disinfection as a residual maintenance approach.

This book was released on 2007-03-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maintaining chlorine and chloramine residual is a key factor that determines potability of distributed water. Decay of these disinfectants is affected by various water quality and infrastructure related factors. Understanding the decay of residuals in the distribution system is critical with respect to safe delivery of drinking water and in developing water quality models that can be used by utilities for the operation of potable water delivery systems. In order to comply with microbial and disinfection byproduct (M/DBP) regulations, water suppliers are continually investing in treatment processes for achieving greater levels of inactivation and DBP precursor removal. As a result of these changes in water quality, maintaining a disinfectant residual in the distribution system can be challenging Bench-scale testing has been used to determine the effect of advanced treatment (enhanced coagulation, granular activated carbon adsorption, ozonation, biofiltration, and ultraviolet irradiation) on chlorine and chloramine decay. Additional studies examine the effects of disinfectant dose, temperature, pH, blending, and rechlorination. The effects of water quality on pipe-wall demand were evaluated using the distribution system simulator at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Test and Evaluation Center. Several models are developed regarding disinfectant decay, making it easier to predict chlorine demand after changes in treatment. The multi-species water quality analysis and network path analysis extensions to EPANET will make the modeling package more robust and will allow utilities to predict chlorine residual at any point in their distribution system with greater confidence.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Residual chlorines are provided in water distribution systems to maintain the inactivation of pathogens intruded into network. The effectiveness of chlorine residuals on pathogen removal can be determined using system vulnerability assessment. The effectiveness of chlorination was determined separately and it was determined as higher than that of the distribution and dilution for two case networks studied. CT (Chlorine Residual Concentration x Contact Time) value which is used as an important criterion to assess the inactivation of pathogens, is complicated to be determined for distribution networks due to varying residence times and chlorine concentrations. The relation of CT value with the removal ratio of pathogens was used to estimate CT value for distribution networks. The results of case studies indicate that CT value determined for a distribution network does not only depend on concentration and contact time of chlorine residuals but also temperature, pH and intrusion location and duration.

This book was released on 2007-05-31 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Utilities that have difficulty maintaining free chlorine residuals in their distribution systems, or that are unable to attain the minimum DBP concentrations set by regulation, often switch to chloramines as secondary disinfectants. Unfortunately, chloraminated distribution systems are biologically unstable in that they may promote nitrifying bacteria growth. The prevention and control of nitrification is a concern for chloraminating utilities as it is identified with disinfectant loss and facilitation of heterotrophic biological growth. This study has shown that a periodic switch from a chloramine residual to a free chlorine residual may not be sufficient for long-term control of nitrification within a chloraminated distribution system. Given the higher levels of DBPs observed following a switch to free chlorine, utilities may be better served by careful maintenance of their ammonia feed such that nitrification episodes are minimized.

Book excerpt: This manual provides general information and insight into the development of a comprehensive water treatment residuals management plan for potable water treatment facilities. Readers gain an understanding of how to characterize the form, quantity, and quality of the residuals; determine the appropriate regulatory requirements; identify feasible disposal options; select appropriate residuals processing/treatment technologies; and develop a residuals management strategy that meets both the economic and noneconomic goals established for a water treatment facility. Addressed primarily are those residuals produced by coagulation/filtration plants, precipitative softening plants, membrane separation, ion exchange (IX), and granular activated carbon (GAC) absorption. In addition, available treatment technologies for gaseous residuals including stripping, odor control, gaseous chemical leak treatment, and ozonation are described.
