Small systems frequently have difficulty meeting today's drinking water quality requirements. The overall purpose of this investigation was to develop a treatment process that would be simple enough for small systems to use and would provide a method for disinfection byproduct (DBP) control and vigorous disinfection. Many of the current organic control unit processes have disadvantages: Coagulation and settling produce sludge, air stripping causes air pollution, and adsorption onto granular activated carbon involves regeneration of the adsorbent to renew the adsorbing surfaces. Oxidation, on the other hand, if carried to completion, truly destroys the organic compounds, converting them to carbon dioxide, water, and inorganic ions. Thus, this is an attractive concept.
