The Cheng Ching Lake Water Works treatment facility in
southern Taiwan experienced customer complaints about
hardness and tastes and odors in the finished water.
Although the facility used conventional treatment methods, customers
continued to complain. To remedy the situation, the
authors studied treatment methods to complement the existing
conventional treatment processes. Treatments studied included
ozone, granular activated carbon (GAC), softening, and membrane
processing. The best water quality was obtained with an integrated
membrane treatment process. Results of the study also
showed that avoiding prechlorination significantly improved the
biostability of finished water. Includes 19 references, tables, figures.
