Residual Control
§ All the measurements for residual only give the quantitative
picture.
§ Typically measure chlorine residual in ppm.
EPA Observations
“Chick’s Law does not accurately predict coliform numbers as
a function of dose in the real-world, continuous flow
systems….The observation has frequently been made that
inactivation of organisms in batch experiments, even when the
disinfectant is kept constant, does not follow the exponential
decay pattern predicted”
