Considering the disinfection byproduct （DBP） precursor treatability, DOM was divided into five chemical fractions based on resin adsorption. Trihalomethane formation potential （THMFP） and haloacetic acid formation potential （HAAFP） were measured for each fraction. The results showed that hydrophobic acids （HoA）, hydrophilic matter （HIM） and hydrophobic neutral （HoN） were the dominant fractions. Although both HoN and HoA were the main THM precursors, the contribution for THMFP changed after coagulation. Additionally, HoA and HiM were the main HAA precursors, while the contribution of HoN to HAAFP significantly increased after coagulation. HoM was more easily removed than HiM, no matter which coagulant was used, especially under enhanced coagulation conditions. DOC removal was highest for enhanced coagulation using FeCl3 while DBPFP was lowest using PAC1. This could indicate that not all DOC fractions contained the precursors of DBPs. Reduction of THMFP and HAAFP by PAC1 under enhanced coagulation could reach 51% and 59% respectively.展开更多

In this paper, we proposed a practical evaluation method based on the analytic hierarchy process （AHP）. The hierarchical structure of the water utilities was established in terms of the fault event analysis from the past failure accidents. The severity of criteria was preset by the experts and the probability of criteria was determined by a modified CUWA-TSM sheet with the consideration of the actual situations of the supply system. The evaluation model was successfully performed by a case study. Although, the method in this paper may not be as good as the framework of WSPs, it has a great advantage compared to WSPs and TSM. The risk management can be applied through specific software packages with a user-friendly interface, which means it is easier to implement. In addition, it can point out the critical control points （CCPs） for the decisionmakers. So we believe this method will improve and play a more and more active role in the development of the risk management in China water works.展开更多
