Abstract
With elevated disinfection byproduct (DBP) levels in its distribution system, a water treatment plant in Maine worked with an engineering consultant to develop solutions and avoid possible regulatory violations.
Four mitigation options were determined—two of them immediate and two long-term, with the chosen strategy being premembrane coagulation.
Recommendations from the success of the DBP mitigation project include being proactive, collaborating with team members and outside experts, and planning for resilience.
