Wastewater Treatment Disinfection OptionsWastewater disinfection treatment prevents the spread of waterborne diseases by reducing microbes and bacterial numbers to a regulated level. Disinfection is typically the final phase in removing organisms from the treated water before the effluent is discharged back into the water system.With a variety of physical and chemical disinfection methods available, Darin Jacobs, P.E., provides an overview of common wastewater disinfection options and criteria used to select the ideal option for your community. Historically, the chemical agent of preference for municipal wastewater treatment has been chlorine due to its properties and cost. However, the growing expense of chlorine and concerns of toxicity have accelerated the usage of physical methods such as ozonation or ultraviolet (UV) light.  Listen in to learn more.Webinar AgendaWastewater Treatment Disinfection Options (0:20)Common Systems Available for Wastewater Disinfection Treatment  (1:19)UV Disinfection Treatment Systems (1:44)What is UV Disinfection?
