Lauer is senior technical services engineer for the American Water Works Association (AWWA). Mr. Lauer has written and edited more than a dozen books and 50 art

31、icles and technical publications covering all aspects of the drinking water industry, including water quality, treatment, reuse, distribution system operation, management, and desalting. He is a recognized technical expert in the field and has consulted for NASA, US En-vironmental Protection Agency,

32、 the Government of Singapore, several ma-jor engineering design and construction firms, and many others in his more than 30 years in the drinking water supply field.Michael G. BarsottiMichael G. Barsotti is director of water quality and production for Cham-plain Water District in northwestern Vermon

33、t. Mr. Barsotti has written several papers addressing treatment facility optimization and has actively served the Partnership for Safe Water Program and the AWWA New Eng-land Water Works Filtration Committee. In addition, Mr. Barsotti has served several years as a state regulator. He has more than 2

34、2 years experience in drinking water treatment plant operations and water quality management. David K. HardyDavid K. Hardy is manager of the Utah Valley Water Treatment Plant for the Central Utah Water Conservancy District. David has been involved in the operations of water treatment plants since 19

35、85. He served as a plant operator for 12 years and treatment plant manager for the past 11 years. He considers his most important title to be “operator” and continues to operate the plant, with frequency, to “feed his roots.” His strengths are in his knowl-edge of process control and treatment plant

36、 optimization. The Utah Valley Plant and staff are recipients of the Partnership for Safe Water Phase IV Award of Excellence.xiForewordThis chemical feed operators field guide is one of the “Field Guide” se-ries of books published by the American Water Works Association (AWWA). These books are meant

37、 to be small, practical, how-to publications on specific subjects of importance to drinking water system operating personnel. These books omit most of the theory and background that have led to the use of the procedures described in the guides. This fundamental information is found in other AWWA pub

38、lications and is referenced in the field guides. This field guide, like the other books in this series, provides the infor-mation needed to do the work. Useful tables and easy-to-follow illustrations help system operators perform the chemical feed procedures described in the references. Field guides

39、 get straight to the point and provide the neces-sary information to perform the most common procedures. This approach leads the operator to the most useful solutions without needlessly complicat-ing the issue with every possibility.There are several special notes included throughout the book. Look

40、for “Ops Tips” and the “Table Tamer” in callouts and text boxes for some help with important points and how to use some of the tables. There are also many “calculators” that help plug in the numbers needed to calculate a value.“Calculators” provide easy-to-use, plug-in-the-numbers equations and exam

41、ples that are used to give quick results. The conversion factors and other constants have been combined so that the equation is greatly simpli-fied. The derivation of the formula is not given, just the result. More detail about the source of the constants shown for the calculators is shown in Ap-pen

47、nt plants use chemicals to remove contaminants, improve taste and appearance, and satisfy regulatory requirements. Accurate delivery of these chemicals to the point of application is critical to maintain and assess plant performance, to control the cost of treatment, and to predict the need for more

48、 supplies.Many chemicals are used in water treatment. Table 1-1 lists the most common chemicals. The table groups chemicals by the most prevalent use, although some chemicals are used for several purposes.Many chemical feed locations exist in a treatment plant. Rapid dispersion of coagulants occurs

49、in the rapid mix chamber. Polymer filter aids are added just prior to filtration or even on top of the fil-ters. Injecting disinfection chemicals after filtration reduces unde-sirable by-products. Stabilization of the water provides corrosion control as the water enters the distribution system (Figure 1-1). A careful match of the feed location with the correct chemical leads to peak treatment plant performance.Quality Control Leads to Quality AssuranceDr
