Abstract

Preliminary evaluations of small surface water treatment systems can be performed by systems managers and operators before a consulting engineer is hired. System evaluations can be aided by conducting literature searches at libraries, by reviewing and comparing the design of the treatment system with similar existing systems, by performing system simulations, and by conducting evaluations in the treatment plant using different coagulants and coagulant aids. These evaluation techniques are illustrated by a study conducted at the Westfield water treatment plant in the United States.
