Two new nephelometers have been developed to help optimize filterperformance at water treatment plants. One nephelometer was designed to give simple, accurate, and rapid response to turbidity changes during a backwash cycle. The other was designed specifically to monitor filter effluent. During this study, the instrumentation was used to monitor the filter effluent for events detected before filtration. The ultimate goal will be to optimize plant performance through identification and subsequent reduction of particle events that occur prior to filtration or during the backwash cycle. The costs and benefits of using these technologies are also addressed. Includes tables, figures.
