Description:
fThis presentation is on high-rate disinfection of wet-weather flow (WWF) and pretreatment processes of suspended solids to enhance the disinfection. A discussion of pretreatment processes and of the newest disinfection technologies used for WWF is included, along with the feasibility of these technologies (e.g., ultraviolet light irradiation, ozonation, disinfection with chlorine dioxide). They physical pretreatment processes discussed include fine-mesh screening, filtration, and sedimentation. The benefiits of high-rate versus conventional pretreatment processes are emphasized.
