19 DBP Control after Point of Entry Management of Water Age Avoiding high Cl 2 doses Booster chlorination Blending from multiple POEs Use of Alternative Final Disinfectants Chlorine Dioxide: limits on dose Chloramines: many secondary issues Forms less THMs, HAAs, but more nitrosamines and some others Localized Treatment 15
20 Conclusions Regulated DBPs (THMs & HAAs) tend to increase with time, and chlorine dose Non-regulated and emerging DBPs may not Increasing ph usually results in lower DBP levelsl Exception: THMs! Many options for controlling DBPs Precursor removal is most widely practiced Chloramines are also widely used They can increase some DBPs that may be subject to future regulation (e.g., nitrosamines) 16

By a professor/engineer versus a makeup artist 60 ppb (ug/l) in DW versus 20% in DW $24 for 5 g (99%) from Aldrich versus $23.99 for 1 oz (20%) from Amazon online
24 D/DBP Rule: Stage 2 Overview Designed to reduce peak occurrences in distribution systems by changing compliance monitoring (LRAA) One-year IDSE to select site-specific ifi optimal sample points to capture peaks and limit THM/HAA variations Locational Running Annual Average (LRAA) MCLs: 80/60 - for each monitoring location 3 Monitoring for Large SW systems (> 10,000) quarterly sampling at least one quarterly sample at peak month 4-20 DS locations determined by initial distribution system evaluation (IDSE) and stage 1 locations 2-8 at high THM sites, and 1-7 at high HAA sites Monitoring for small SW systems (< 10,000) 2 locations as determined by IDSE 3

40 Presentation Outline 3 Approach Control of DBPs Compliance Tool Introduction
41 DBP Formation 4 NOM = natural organic matter HOCl + NOM Reduce these to minimize formation Chlorinated Organics THMs HAAs f [chlorine dose, NOM concentration, ph, temperature, time]
42 DBP Control: 5 Understand your water system Source Treatment Plant Distribution System
43 Options 6 DBPs = f [chlorine dose, TOC, ph, temperature, time] Parameter Source Water Treatment Distribution TOC Chlorine Time Temperature ph : Locations where parameters can be affected
44 DBP Control 7 f [chlorine dose, NOM concentration ti (and type), ph, temperature, t time] Control options: Use alternative source water Alter chlorination scheme Reduce chlorine dose Move point of chlorination to downstream of NOM removal Optimize DOC removal (e.g., improved mixing, coagulation chemistry, ph) Use alternative disinfectants Use of ozone, chlorine dioxide typically results in lower concentrations of DBPs UV disinfection Chloramines Optimize distribution system operations Reduce travel time in distribution system Change ph Remove DBPs after formation Aeration for THMs; GAC for HAAs
45 Source Control 8 Parameter Source Water Treatment Distribution TOC Chlorine Time Temperature ph : Locations where parameters can be affected
46 Source Strategies 9 If flexibility exists, consider: Changing source water seasonally Blending water sources Modifying reservoir filling operations
47 Changing Sources Seasonally 10 Goal Use the best source water quality during periods of high DBPs Requires significant infrastructure to be in place Potentially simple to complicated rules Examples: Reservoir/River Sources Surface / Ground Water Sources Multiple Intakes Algae Elev vation Temperature Low DO, Mn 2+??
48 Treatment Control 11 Parameter Source Water Treatment Distribution TOC Chlorine Time Temperature ph : Locations where parameters can be affected
49 Treatment Strategies for Stage 2 12 System Optimization Process Changes Advanced TOC Removal Cost Optimize Free Chlorine Disinfection Implement Enhanced Coagulation Change Coagulant Change Secondary Disinfectant Change Primary Disinfectant MIEX or Post-Filter GAC Contactors Membranes Strategy
50 Treatment Options: 13 Optimize Free Chlorine Free chlorine usage If possible, reduce or eliminate raw water chlorination Not at the expense of required CT If manganese is an issue, need to consider alternative pre-filter oxidant Understand CT requirements Chlorine doses leaving the plant Evaluate seasonal trends at minimum residual locations May be able to reduce applied chlorine dose in the winter to maintain residual. However, may need higher dose in the winter to meet CT
51 Treatment Options: 14 Optimize Coagulation Target TOC as well as turbidity Turbidity (NTU) Turbidity UV 2.3 NTU 11.2 NTU Ferric Dose (mg/l) UV Absorban nce (cm 1 )
52 Treatment Options: 15 Change Coagulants Coagulation changes to target TOC reduction Change coagulant PACl effective for particle removal Alum can be effective for particle and TOC reduction Limited ph reduction before Al solubility issues Ferric can be effective for particle and TOC reduction ph can be suppressed further than alum or PACl Add acid Lowering ph improves removal of TOC Alum and ferric are acidic, so ph will be lowered compared to PACl Be wary of alkalinity (needed for floc formation)
53 Treatment Options: 16 Change Disinfectants Alternative disinfectants do not form chlorinated DBPs ClO 2, Ozone, UV Non-chlorine disinfectants more effective against Cryptosporidium and Giardia In addition to cost Ozone can create bromate (MCL = 10 g/l) if you have bromide in your raw water Chlorine dioxide forms chlorite (MCL = 1.0mg/L) No residual disinfectant for the distribution system
54 Treatment Options: 17 Advanced TOC Removal Activated Carbon (GAC and PAC) Membranes MIEX
55 Distribution System 18 Parameter Source Water Treatment Distribution TOC Chlorine Time Temperature ph : Locations where parameters can be affected
56 Formation in the Distribution System? Measu ured TTHM (pp pb) Predicted Water Age (hours)
57 Localized or Widespread? 20 IDSE scrutiny has improved understanding of DBPs in Distribution Systems Problem areas highlight extent of elevated DBPs
58 Widespread Issues 21 Consider system-wide improvements Reduce chlorine levels into the DS Chloramines for residual
59 Widespread Issues 22 Consider system-wide improvements Reducing water age Reduce amount of storage (within safe limits) Consider dead-ends Is the storage in the best place?
60 Localized Issues: Minimize System Water Age Periodic flushing programs Done to eliminate or reduce hot spots Completed in conjunction with distribution system model approximating water age 23
61 Localized Issues 24 Localized Treatment Treatment may be an option? Mixing Tank Aeration GAC at tank outlet

89 Summary 28 The Stage 2 D/DBP Rule compliance dates are 1 year away for small and mid-size utilities There is a huge body of knowledge available for utilities and consultants to use in developing solutions The purpose of this project is to assemble that information into an easy to use tool to help small and mid-size utilities comply with the rule
90 Summary (cont.) 29 Approaches to reduce DBPs target formation factors Source, treatment, and distribution strategies Need to understand your data to assess compliance situation Need to understand control options to implement the most cost effective solution for your particular utility. The new WaterRF and Hazen and Sawyer DBP Compliance Guidance Manual and Tool will provide assistance
