Localized Treatment for Disinfection By-Products

Abstract

Investigates implementation issues associated with DBP treatment within a distribution system. Assesses treatment characteristics and identifies control, operation, and maintenance issues. Also develops a dynamic operations and treatment model and provides information on the cost-effectiveness of this approach versus costs to treat the entire water supply. Tailored Collaboration partner: Las Vegas Valley Water District. Includes a CD-ROM. Published in 2009.
