Types of Disinfection
•Difference between Disinfection and Sterlization
•Types of Disinfection
Physical
Chemical
Mechanical
• Chlorination Reaction
HOCl (Hypochlorous Acid)
OCl (Hypochlorite ion)
Disinfection 4
Terms in Chlorination
•Plain Chlorination (0.5 -1 mg/L— Res. 0.1 mg/L)
•Pre-Chlorination ( Res. 0.1- 0.5 mg/L)
•Post Chlorination (0.25 -0.5 mg/L--- Res. 0.2 mg/L)
•Super Chlorination
•De Chlorination
Disinfection 5
Concepts in Chlorination
•Free Available Chlorine
•Combined Available Chlorine
•Break point Chlorination (7 -10 mg/L---Res. 0.5 mg/L)
•Reactions of Chlorine with Ammonia
Monochloroamine
Dichloro amine
Trichloroamine
N20, N2

Numerical No.1:
The chlorine demand of water under given condition is
7 mg/L as Cl2 after a contact period of 30 minutes, Calculate
the amount of Bleaching powder, if available concentration
given by the manufacturer is 13%. The water to be disinfected
is 2,350 m3/day sothat the free residual chlorine is 0.2. Design
Disinfection tank.
