Intermountain Section AWWA 2017 Annual Conference

Much of our effort as water system professionals is expended to ensure that the public water supply is effectively disinfected. Safe drinking water is always the priority, but there is often room for optimizing the way we approach this important process. With ever changing and tightening regulations, shipping and handling limitations, and safety concerns, our methods for achieving disinfection and our choice of disinfectants may also change. In this session, we will look at disinfectant options, strategies, and feed locations that may yield increased performance. Performance gains may come in the form of more effective disinfection, decreased formation of disinfection by-products, better managed distribution systems, and of course increased confidence in the safety of the water to be delivered.
