A magnetized ion exchange resin (MIEX®) has been shown to be highly effective
in removing dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from waters and in removing
selected inorganic anions of concern such as bromide. As part of an AwwaRF
tailored collaborative project, a 10-gpm MIEX pilot plant was installed and
operated for five weeks at the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA). In
August 2003, the SNWA implemented 750-MGD of ozonation between two
treatment facilities to achieve Cryptosporidium inactivation. It was expected that
MIEX pretreatment could yield a benefit at SNWA by reducing DOC and
bromide concentrations. Removal of these constituents would likely reduce
bromate formation, ozone demand, ozone decay rates, and disinfection byproduct
formation. Includes table, figures.
