Methods The appropriate ozone dosage was determined, and then the changes of TOC, UV254 and THM formation potential （THMFP） in the combined system were evaluated. Results One mg/L ozone could effectively remove taste and odor and meet the maximum allowable bromate level in drinking water. The pre-ozonation increased THMFP, but the conventional treatment system could effectively reduce the odor. The bio-ceramic filter could partly reduce CHC13FP, but sometimes might increase CHCl2BrFP and CHClBr2FP. The biological activated carbon （BAC） filter could effectively reduce CHC13FP and CHCl2BrFP, but increase CHClBr2FP. Compared with other filters, the fresh activated carbon （FAC） filter performed better in reducing THMFP and even reduced CHClBr2FP. Conclusion The combined system can effectively reduce taste, odor, CHC13FP, and CHCl2BrFP and also bring bromate under control.展开更多

Methods Reduction of total organic carbon （TOC）, ultraviolet absorbance （UV254）, tfihalomethane （THM） formation potential （THMFP）, haloacetic acid （HAA） formation potential （HAAFP）, and ammonia in FBBR were evaluated in detail. Results The reduction of TOC or UV254 was low, on average 12.6% and 4.7%, respectively, while the reduction of THMFP and HAAFP was significant. The reduction of ammonia was 30%-40% even below 3℃, however, it could quickly rise to over 50% above 3℃. Conclusions The FBBR effectively reduces CBPs and ammonia in drinking water even at low temperature and seems to be a very promising and competitive drinking water reactor for polluted surface source waters, especially in China.展开更多
