Chlorine dioxide is well established as a highly effective and affordable drinking water disinfectant. However, the complexity of analytical testing to meet EPA regulations has always been a challenge for chlorine dioxide users. Recently, there have been significant recent developments in terms of EPA regulations and testing protocols.
Presented on Sept. 6, 2018, the webinar gives utilities a comprehensive understanding of the current EPA-approved standard test methods for chlorine dioxide, chlorite ion and chlorate ion residuals in treated water and the analytical procedures that can be used for residual measurements.
