There are currently 45 drinking water plants in the USA<br />
using UV. AWWARF Project 2749 is evaluating the<br />
combined usage of ozone and UV in drinking water<br />
treatment. A full-scale design was made of the Lake<br />
Pleasant, AZ water treatment plant. The treatment<br />
sequence of this plant, which is under construction, is<br />
Flocculation – Ozonation – Biological Filtration – GAC<br />
– UV.<br />
Joop Kruithof, IOA President, reviewed the use of UV for<br />
disinfection at the PWN Water Supply Co. IJssel water<br />
treatment plant, <strong>No</strong>rth Holland. <strong>Ozone</strong> was not used at<br />
this plant.<br />
James Bolton, IUVA, presented the upcoming<br />
AWWA/UV Handbook.<br />
Equipment Exhibition<br />
There were approximately 1000 exhibits at the conference,<br />
slightly more than the 2004 conference. Exhibitors with<br />
ozone equipment or interests included:<br />
• Analytical Technology<br />
• Applied Process Technology<br />
• Best Sulfur Products<br />
• Carus Chemical Co.<br />
• Emerson Process/Rosemont Analytical<br />
• Fuji Electric<br />
• GDT Water Process Corp.<br />
• Mitsubishi Electric Power Products, Inc.<br />
• <strong>Ozone</strong> Water Systems<br />
• Ozonia <strong>No</strong>rth America<br />
• Pacific <strong>Ozone</strong> Technology<br />
• ProMinent Fluid Controls Inc.<br />
• Statiflo Corporation<br />
• Wedeco/ITT Industries<br />
AWWA in 2006 will occur in San Antonio, TX June 11-<br />
15. AWWA 2005 appears to have met the expectations of<br />
the attendees. Those in the ozone business were<br />
optimistic about the upcoming year as the municipal<br />
business appears to be stronger and the industrial markets<br />
are still evolving.<br />

AWWA <strong>Ozone</strong> Handbook<br />
<strong>Ozone</strong> in Drinking Water Treatment: Design,<br />
Operation and Optimization<br />
This handbook, written and edited by Kerwin L.<br />
Rakness is designed as a practical, but detailed guide<br />
to using ozone in drinking water treatment. It is<br />
designed for water utilities, engineers, organizations<br />
using bench or pilot testing, and regulatory agency<br />
staff.<br />
The book is composed of 8 chapters plus an appendix.<br />
1. Introduction. <strong>Ozone</strong> safety, Physical and chemical<br />
properties, generation theory<br />
2. Applications in Drinking Water Treatment.<br />
Disinfection (Giardia, Cryptosporidium), <strong>Ozone</strong><br />
oxidation (iron, manganese, color, turbidity<br />
removal), Advanced oxidation<br />
3. <strong>Ozone</strong> Process Layout, Sizing and Cost.<br />
Generator design, Contactor design<br />
4. <strong>Ozone</strong> Process and Equipment Design &<br />
Operation. <strong>Ozone</strong> concentration and energy<br />
efficiency, Types of gas feed systems, <strong>Ozone</strong><br />
Contactor options<br />
5. Optimized <strong>Ozone</strong> Operation & Performance<br />
6. <strong>Ozone</strong> Concentration in Gas Measurement<br />
7. <strong>Ozone</strong> Residual-in-Water Measurement<br />
8. Gas Flow Measurement & Moisture Content<br />
Calculations<br />
9. Appendix – <strong>Ozone</strong> Calculations and Conversion<br />
Factors<br />
Cost of the handbook, which will be available in<br />
September, is $90 for IOA members and $125 for nonmembers.<br />
Ordering information will be available on<br />
the IOA PAG website www.io3a.org.<br />
This handbook will be a must for anyone involved in<br />
ozone system design and opearation.
