Residual chlorine analyzer
The Series RPH-250 Analyzer, available from Hydro Instruments, makes use of the Amperometric method to determine residual levels in the sample water. The measurement is continuous, not relying on sample and hold methods, thereby allowing for better process control. The free-chlorine probe offers easily replaceable membrane caps. The analyzer is optionally available with pH compensation performed in software.

Water main disinfection
Mazzei Injector Corp., in cooperation with Camp Dresser & McKee and Denver Water, has developed a mobile ozone system for disinfection of municipal water mains. Following three years of research and full scale pilot testing, Denver Water now uses the trailer-mounted ozone disinfection system on pipeline segments ranging from 300 to 3,000 feet in length. The system is a complete mobile “turnkey” unit that allows the user to rapidly disinfect municipal pipelines in 30 minutes or less using ozone that is generated onsite.

Microwave UV technology
The MicroDynamicsTM microwave ultraviolet technology from Severn Trent Services uses microwaves to energize low-pressure, high-output lamps for municipal or industrial water and wastewater disinfection. With electrodeless lamps, there are no electrical connections to fail, corrode or leak. The lamps light instantly, providing immediate, reliable disinfection, and lamps can be switched on and off to match flow. The system offers a modular 4-lamp design to meet varying flow rates and demands, and the company’s standard three-year lamp life guarantee on each system reduces maintenance concerns and whole-life costs.

Chlorine dioxide monitoring
Analytical Technology (ATi) has introduced the Q45H/65 Residual Chlorine Dioxide Monitor for the online monitoring and control of disinfection systems. This system responds to chlorine dioxide with minimal interference from any residual chlorine that may be present. The monitor features a membrane-covered polarographic sensor that does not require the addition of chemical reagents. All that is needed is a consistent flow of water across the face of the sensor. That can be provided by a simple constant-head flowcell.
