The Certification and Use of HiPOx~(TM) for Reclaimed WaterDisinfection

摘要

Applied Process Technology and Carollo Engineers performed detailed pathogen disinfection testing at both the bench- and pilot-scale for ozone and advanced oxidation (ozone and hydrogen peroxide) using Applied's HiPOx technology to meet the stringent disinfection criteria for "tertiary recycled water" under Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations. The data suggest that the disinfection of seeded virus with HiPOx is rapid with Ct_(10) values less than 0.20 mgmin/L. Similarly, the log reduction of total and fecal coliform disinfection occurs rapidly, but moderate Ct_(10) values of 1.0 mg-min/L are needed to bring coliform counts below detection limits. The findings of this study will help establish the proper use of HiPOx for reclaimed water treatment and provide an alternative technology to various regulators and municipalities for water reuse.
