Abstract:
The objective of this work was to investigate the disinfection effectiveness of several technologies, i.e. chlorination, ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, ozonation, and the combination chlorination with UV irradiation or ozonation, on the removal of indicator microorganisms and the formation of trihalomethanes (THMs) related to available chlorine dosage from a pilot-scale MBR effluents. The combination technologies exhibited much higher disinfection effectiveness than that of single one. The total coliform of disinfected MBR effluents disinfected in both UV-chlorination combination process (at an UV dose of 25 mJ/cm2, and an available chlorine dose of 3 mg/L) and ozonation-chlorination combination process (at an ozone dose of 6 mg/L and an available chlorine dose of 4 mg/L) could meet the requirement of Reuse of Urban Recycling Water-Water Quality, a standard for Urban Miscellaneous Water Consumption (GB/T18920-2002). The concentration of THMs increased with the increase of available chlorine dosage. In comparison with UV-chlorination combination process, ozonation-chlorination combination process could effectively reduce the THM formation.. The concentration of THMs was 14.11 μg/L at an available dose of 4 mg/L, which decreased by 37.19% compared with chlorination disinfection. ©, 2014, Science Press. All right reserved.
