Disinfection holds an unmatched distinction among water treatment technologies: it has saved countless lives over the past 100 years since chlorine was first applied to water drawn from the Boonton Reservoir in Jersey City, N.J. This momentous application of “chloride of lime” transformed water treatment across the globe. Chlorine has remained the disinfectant of choice, as reported by 68% of the utilities that responded to AWWA's Disinfection Systems Committee survey of disinfection practices. A number of utilities reported having switched to other disinfectants: chloramine ‐ 30%, ozone ‐ 9%, chlorine dioxide ‐ 8%, ultraviolet light ‐ 2%. Part 1 of the committee's two‐part report covers recent changes, current practices, and water quality. Part 2 will be published in the November issue.
