Evaluation of Four Dissolved Ozone Residual Meters' Performance and Disinfection Credits in Potable Reuse Applications

Measurement of dissolved ozone (O 3 ) residual is critical for accurately determining O 3 concentration-contact time product (CT) in order to establish pathogen removal credit. Higher concentrations of metals and organics in wastewater present more challenging conditions for on-line meters, requirin...

Description
Summary:Measurement of dissolved ozone (O 3 ) residual is critical for accurately determining O 3 concentration-contact time product (CT) in order to establish pathogen removal credit. Higher concentrations of metals and organics in wastewater present more challenging conditions for on-line meters, requiring more frequent calibration and maintenance. This study evaluated the performance, maintenance, and cost of four commercially available over a 1-year period. Individual meter readings were compared to daily grab samples analyzed with an indigo trisulfonate method to determine O 3 residual. Ease of maintenance and reliability of O 3 residual measurements were key parameters in ranking the meters for monitoring ozone CT in a water reuse application.
