AWWA ACE91059

The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California recently completed a 2-year pilot-scale study as part of an ongoing effort to identify drinking water treatment technologies that will allow Metropolitan to minimize the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs), while maintaining control over taste-and-odor (T&O) compounds and microorganisms. This study focused on the evaluation of ozone and peroxone (the combination of hydrogen peroxide and ozone) as potential alternatives to free chlorine as a predisinfectant/preoxidant. A summary of DBP results obtained during the pilot study is presented in this paper.
