Ozone and Biological Treatment for DBP Control and Biological Stability

Abstract

Evaluates the use of ozone with biological treatment to control disinfection by-products. Also examines the impact of this treatment scheme on biological regrowth and on the maintenance of a disinfectant residual in the distribution system. Provides useful information to utilities that are designing or retrofitting ozone into their plants. Published in 1994.
