Wastewater Technology Fact Sheet Ozone Disinfection
Disinfection is considered to be the primary mechanism for the inactivation/destruction of pathogenic organisms to prevent the spread of waterborne diseases to downstream users and the environment. It is important that wastewater be adequately treated prior to disinfection in order for any disinfectant to be effective. Table 1 lists some common microorganisms found in domestic wastewater and the diseases associated with them.

Biocides for Disinfection and Storage of Hydranautics Membrane Elements
This bulletin provides general information about biocides that may be used with Hydranautics membrane elements for disinfection and/or storage. Before storage or disinfection of Hydranautics elements, one should become familiar with Technical Service Bulletins 108 and 118 which describe the general storage and flushing procedures for all Composite Polyamide, and PVD membrane elements. Also, one should confirm which type of membrane elements are actually in the system. Since elements may be composed of either composite polyamide membrane or polyvinyl derivative, it is imperative to be certain of the type to be disinfected.

Disinfection and Chlorination
Disinfection is the process designed to kill or inactivate most microorganisms in wastewater, including essentially all pathogenic organisms. Contrast this to sterilization, which is the removal and destruction of all living microorganisms, including pathogenic and saprophytic bacteria, vegetative forms and spores.

Water Treatment Manual: Disinfection
Drinking water supplies in Ireland are predominantly sourced from surface waters or groundwaters influenced by surface water. In recent reports on “The Provision and Quality of Drinking Water in Ireland” the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) found that 81.6% originates from surface water (i.e. rivers and lakes) with the remainder originating from groundwater (10.3%) and springs (8%). Source waters, susceptible to surface contamination, particularly surface waters and groundwater and spring sources contain micro-organisms such as bacteria, viruses and protozoan parasites (e.g. Cryptosporidium) which can present a risk to human health if not effectively treated and disinfected. Since 2008 the EPA has set out as its policy that the most effective means of consistently ensuring the safety of a drinking water supply is through the use of a comprehensive risk assessment and risk management approach that encompasses all steps in water supply from catchment to consumer. The EPA has advised Water Service Authorities to implement the World Health Organisation (WHO) Water Safety Plan approach to risk assessment and risk management.

Disinfection of Drinking Water
The goal of water disinfection is the inactivation of microorganisms, such as viruses, bacteria and protozoa, which can cause serious illnesses and death. Although disinfection can be accomplished to a significant extent by a number of physiochemical water treatment processes, such as coagulation, sedimentation, filtration, lime-soda softening and adsorption, a specific chemical disinfection step is usually incorporated into surface water treatment process trains to prevent the transmission of waterborne diseases.

Evaluation of Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2) Generation System for Disinfection in RO Product Water at SWCC Jubail Plant
Recent studies have shown the formation of bromate in desalination-derived drinking water, especially when the desalinated water is treated with sodium
hypochlorite solution produced by electrolyzing seawater.

Disinfection Practices for Water – Basic
. Chemical and physical relationships govern all disinfection chemistry
. Knowledge of these relationships increases operator skills and troubleshooting abilities
. Allows operators to control conditions that optimize disinfection practices
. Treatment processes are managed to disinfect water for consumption and to meet regulatory objectives
. Minimum disinfectant residuals
. CT compliance - demonstration of efficient disinfection
