Description:
Battelle, under a contract with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), is conducting full-scale demonstration studies on the removal of arsenic from drinking water supplies at 12 water treatment facilities throughout the United States. These demonstration studies evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of the systems in meeting the new arsenic maximum contaminant level (MCL) of 0.010 mg/L (10 mg/L).
This report provides the source water quality characteristics at each of the 12 demonstration sites and the general rationale used to select the technologies for demonstration at each site. Information on the design and operation of each treatment system is also presented.
