and current system availability
Solid-liquid separation
Filtration
Generally using discs
or fixed screens with
automatic backwashing
Benefit
Considerations
Comments
Hydrocyclone
Alternative to filtration
and can be more effective
Coagulation
Optional pre-treatment
prior to separation to
aggregate particles to
increase their size
As chlorination
Ozonation
Especially effective at
killing micro-organisms
Chlorine
dioxide
As chlorination
Peracetic acid
and hyrdrogen
peroxide
As chlorination
Relies on good UV
transmission through the
water and hence needs clear
water and unfouled quartz
sleeves to be effective
Cavitation
Heat
Classed as an oxidising
biocide that, when diluted
in water, destroys cell
walls of micro-organisms
Menadione is toxic to
invertebrates
Physical disinfection
Can be enhanced by combining with
other reagents such as ozone,
hydrogen peroxide or titanium
dioxide
