Description:
To further understand residual chlorine decay, a pilot-scale pipe dead-end zone was designed and fabricated at the U.S. EPA Test & Evaluation (T&E) facility in Cincinnati, Ohio. Preliminary studies have been conducted to characterize the hydrodynamic characteristics of the pilot-scale system. On-going research includes a series of experimental tests to determine chlorine decay according to detailed experimental designs. This paper describes the pilot-scale experimental dead-end zone device and the results of flow modeling tracer studies. It also reports some preliminary results.
