Full Description

The results of this study show that the ozonation of water containing bromide may produce bromate, with ozone dosage playing a critical role. The appropriate staging of ozone through two or three chambers, however, has the potential to minimize ozone residual and bromate formation while still meeting C X T criteria. The addition of hydrogen peroxide (the PEROXONE process) may increase the formation of bromate. As the pH of ozonation was lowered, the ozone dosage necessary to meet C X T criteria dropped, and less bromate was produced. The authors conclude that a better understanding of the mechanisms of bromate formation is required before it can be fully controlled. Includes 20 references, tables, figures.
