Abstract

Compares the relative treatment performance of two treatment schemes-ozone followed by medium pressure UV and medium pressure UV alone-for both finished and distributed water quality. Determines disinfection effectiveness, synergistic impacts on disinfection by-product formation, biostability, corrosion control and red water, and design and operational guidance for implementing the optimum primary disinfection scheme.
