Publisher: Wiley


Water treatment is a growing field in North America, with seventy US states and localities and ten Canadian provinces requiring certification for water treatment plant operators. This book provides a step-by-step look at the most current water treatment technologies, balancing academic theory and professional practice. A compilation of studies conducted over the past decade at the Bloomington, Illinois Water Treatment Plant, it presents studies that are useful as templates for comparable long-term studies at other water utilities. This is an unparalleled gathering of techniques, processes, and data, including test results for every potential taste and odor control method.

From the Back Cover

A guide for evaluating water treatment plant performance, improving analytical capabilities, and optimizing plant operations

Documenting a twelve-year cooperative effort between H2O'C Engineering and the Bloomington, Illinois, Water Department, this book presents the results of a series of twenty-six on-site studies to systematically evaluate and improve unit processes, operations, and procedures at the Bloomington, Illinois, Water Treatment Plant. It provides guidelines for comparable long-term studies, illustrating how other water treatment plants might develop their own advanced analytic laboratory capabilities, assess treatment process performance, and improve their operations.

Using a case study approach, the authors address such issues as:

Maintaining regulatory compliance

Evaluating particle and organism removal performance

Testing, evaluating, and enhancing filter operations

Managing seasonal taste and odor problems resulting from algal blooms

Improving lime softening performance, efficiency, and operations

Quantifying GAC adsorption and microbial degradation of organic matter

Developing a comprehensive plant operations manual

Following the experiences of the Bloomington Water Department, readers learn how to utilize basic tools and internal resources to reduce costs, improve operational efficiencies, meet evolving regulatory requirements, update emergency procedures, and document standard operational procedures and experiences.
