Chlorination Systems

As an effective yet inexpensive disinfectant, chlorination is the most commonly used disinfection method in drinking water treatment plants all over the world. Chlorine kills pathogens and oxidizes iron, manganese, and taste and odor compounds in water. It can be added to water as a primary disinfection as pre-chlorination, between sedimentation and filtration, or as a final treatment step before distribution. It can also be added as a secondary disinfection to water leaving the plant or within distribution networks to prevent recontamination and ensure drinking water safety.
