Trihalomethane Formation Downstream of Spray Aerators Treating Disinfected Groundwater

Total trihalomethane (TTHM) formation was evaluated in disinfected groundwater that had been treated using spray aeration. A bench-scale air-stripping test apparatus was operated using two alternative spray nozzle configurations: a bench-scale (BS) spray head and an off-the-shelf (OTS) spray nozzle....

Description
Summary:Total trihalomethane (TTHM) formation was evaluated in disinfected groundwater that had been treated using spray aeration. A bench-scale air-stripping test apparatus was operated using two alternative spray nozzle configurations: a bench-scale (BS) spray head and an off-the-shelf (OTS) spray nozzle. Finished chlorinated water samples were collected from two Florida groundwater supplies. The Babson Park water treatment plant (BPWTP) contained bromide at below detection levels of
