Disinfection Of Pipelines And Storage Facilities Field Guide

Specially designed for in-the-field use, this comprehensive yet compact book will pay for itself over and over in the time you save looking for chemical and mathematic formulas, chemical feed rates, US/metric conversions, pipe and equipment data, operational parameters, construction and installation information, OSHA and USEPA regulations, and much more. More than 20 tables have been updated from the 2004 edition, to reflect information in current AWWA standards and manuals in this new edition. Many example calculations were converted to a more understandable format. Information has also been added on drought, emergency disinfection, membranes, nitrification, fluoridation, external corrosion, backflow prevention, PE pipe, fire flow requirements, sizing service lines and meters, and water audits and loss control, and more. Included is a CD with the checklists which can be printed multiple times along with color photos of the related signage. (Replaces ISBN 9781583213155)

This standard for disinfection of water-storage facilities describes materials, facility preparation, application of disinfectant to interior surfaces of facilities, and sampling and testing for the presence of coliform bacteria, chlorine residual, and acceptable aesthetic water quality. The standard also includes disinfection procedures for underwater inspection and/or cleaning of potable-water-storage facilities but does not describe the technical aspects of underwater inspection and/ or cleaning.

This manual suggests design operating and performance criteria for specific surface water quality conditions to provide the optimum protection from microbiological contaminants.
