| Summary |
"Disinfection of drinking water is a vital component of the water treatment and delivery system, and the protection of public health is the primary function of drinking water purveyors. It is a great challenge to provide microbiologically safe water and at the same time control disinfectant by-product production. AWWA Manual M20, Water Chlorination/Chloramination Practices and Principles, provides information on two common disinfection methods - chlorination and chloramination - for the disinfection of drinking water."--BOOK JACKET |
