Abstract

Evaluates integration and potential synergies among GAC adsorption, MIEX® resin, and fixed-bed ion exchange. Determines the performance of combinations of these processes, regeneration frequencies, residuals disposal requirements, and costs to achieve compliance with the Stage 1 and 2 DBP Rules while maintaining a free chlorine residual in the distribution system.
