Abstract: This paper reviews the history associated with the occurrence and regulation of disinfection by‐products in finished drinking water, some of the underlying chemistry associated with their formation, technologies and ...

Abstract: The effect of conventional and booster chlorination on chlorine residuals and trihalomethane (THM) formation in drinking water distribution systems was modeled using the EPANET hydraulic modeling software. The model results ...

Abstract: The objectives of this study were to evaluate the formation and fate of bromoform (one of the regulated trihalomethanes) in pretreatment systems at a pilot-scale desalination facility operated to evaluate various reverse ...

Abstract: Synthetic organic polyelectrolytes can be used to condition sludges to enhance their dewaterability. When conditioning biological sludges, the charge on the polymer has a significant impact on the effectiveness of the ...

Abstract: The adsorption of phenol and substituted phenols on activated carbon was examined. Mixtures of phenolic compounds were employed to test the Ideal Adsorbed Solution (IAS) theory using an improved method of calculation that ...

Abstract: Information Collection Rule (ICR) water quality and treatment data were screened from an end-user’s perspective and data distributions were developed based on the screened data set. Questionable data were flagged and missing ...

Abstract: A mathematical model to describe the changes in the particle size distribution immediately below the solid/liquid interface in gravity thickening was formulated and tested against experimental results. The distribution is ...

Abstract: This work advances the mathematical modeling of ion exchange treatment in completely mixed flow reactors in which there is recycle and regeneration of the ion exchange resin. The most common application of this process is ...
