The control (mitigation) of filtered water diurnal particle count variations that many utilities observe was examined in this research. The causes of such variation are attributed to biological activity in the source water - specifically, photosynthesis and respiration. Effective control options include pH control and oxidant addition (ozone, chlorine, or chlorine dioxide) prior to filtration. Includes figures.
