Download PDF WHITE’S HANDBOOK OF CHLORINATION AND ALTERNATIVE DISINFECTANTS FIFTH EDITION by Black & Veatch

Sinopsis

Over the years, the science and practice of disinfection has provided innumerable health benefits, although the general public is unaware of many of them.With the recognition of infectious organisms such as Cryptosporidium in our raw water supplies, along with the detrimental chronic health effects associated with disinfection by - products, it is critical to balance the extent of their inactivation with the concentrations of disinfection by - products. Many water and wastewater utilities are implementing the use of multiple disinfectants in order to optimize the results while minimizing unwanted side effects. The four previous editions of this handbook have proven to be a valuable resource to countless utilities, regulators, engineers, and operators for information on disinfection of potable water, wastewater, industrial water, and swimming pools. George Clifford White ’ s efforts in compiling these editions are invaluable; and much of the information he has gathered is included in this current edition; some of it is retained solely to provide a historical perspective.

Since the publication of the fourth edition, the water industry has gained a substantial amount of experience with chlorine, hypochlorite, and alternative disinfectants through research, development, and regulation. Consequently, this handbook has been extensively revised and updated to refl ect the most current understanding and practices. The reader will fi nd substantial and important information not only on chlorination but also on alternative disinfectants such as ozone, chlorine dioxide, bromine - related products, and ultraviolet light. In addition, the global focus on reuse to address the issue of water scarcity has elevated the use of advanced oxidation practices, and that chapter has therefore been updated to refl ect today’s environment.

Each chapter has been prepared by experts and reviewed by their peers in an effort to impart accurate, complete, and current knowledge on the subject being discussed. Black & Veatch considers it a privilege to present this updated resource on chlorination and alternative disinfectants for the water and waste water industries.

It is our intention that this handbook continue to be the disinfection reference of choice for designers, operator, engineers, students, and regulators.
