Peracetic Acid Disinfection: Implementation Considerations for Water Resource Recovery Facilities


Book Description

Many utilities in the United States and Canada are looking to peracetic acid (PAA) disinfection; a technology that has been used in Europe for more than a decade; as a part of a risk management decision to reduce or eliminate gas chlorine and other disinfection byproducts from their treatment processes. However; there is a paucity of information available about the evaluation and implementation of this technology. This special publication aims to provide an overview of the chemistry and kinetics of PAA disinfection; along with information for design; permitting; and implementation of the technology.

Innovative Wastewater Treatment & Resource Recovery Technologies: Impacts on Energy, Economy and Environment


Book Description

This book introduces the 3R concept applied to wastewater treatment and resource recovery under a double perspective. Firstly, it deals with innovative technologies leading to: Reducing energy requirements, space and impacts; Reusing water and sludge of sufficient quality; and Recovering resources such as energy, nutrients, metals and chemicals, including biopolymers. Besides targeting effective C,N&P removal, other issues such as organic micropollutants, gases and odours emissions are considered. Most of the technologies analysed have been tested at pilot- or at full-scale. Tools and methods for their Economic, Environmental, Legal and Social impact assessment are described. The 3R concept is also applied to Innovative Processes design, considering different levels of innovation: Retrofitting, where novel units are included in more conventional processes; Re-Thinking, which implies a substantial flowsheet modification; and Re-Imagining, with completely new conceptions. Tools are presented for Modelling, Optimising and Selecting the most suitable plant layout for each particular scenario from a holistic technical, economic and environmental point of view.
