Lake Gaillard Treatment Improvements and Distribution System Water Quality

SCCRWA, 1/1/1998-3/31/1999

PIs: Tobiason, Reckhow & Switzenbaum
Students: John McClellan

This work was done cooperatively between UMass and the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority during the year 1998 and into the first quarter of 1999. It represents a continuation of work from the 1997 project, and it includes special focus on the distribution system and models of chlorine residual and DBP across the system. These kinetic DBP models were a key part of John McClellan's dissertation.
