Abstract

This research evaluated existing water quality models associated with chloramines loss, by-product formation, and nitrification at the distribution system-scale to assess model accuracy and the potential impacts for incorporating these models into water quality maintenance decision support tools. The project was completed in 2010 without publication, and is now being continued as part of project 4345.
