Chloramination Process23• To form the monochloramine compound, theappropriate weight ratio of chlorine and ammoniamust be determined and then properly managed.• Free ammonia entering the distribution systemmust be controlled to reduce the potential fornitrification.• Chloramines are weaker oxidizing agents,therefore a higher disinfectant residual is requiredfor similar results. A chloramine residual of 2.0mg/L is comparable to a free chlorine residual of0.5 mg/L.Disinfection
