Based on the provided data, plot a figure showing the chlorine demand curve. Be sure to
label the axes.
a. What is the breakpoint dosage?
b. What chlorine dose should be used to achieve a 2.1mgL free residual chlorine
concentration?
c. What is the total residual at the dose in part b?
Consult Table 16.2(in LO2_Disinfection_Droste.pdf) to find C.t values for 99.9% reduction in
Giardia lamblia with a free Cl concentration of 2.0mgL.(Assume conservatively that the
residual chlorine is 2.0 rather than the 2.1 we are designing the dosage for.)
a. Calculate the required retention time in minutes for a proposed contact tank.
b. Explain which temperature value you used and why.
c. Calculate the size of detention tank needed to achieve this retention time for the design
flowrate. Give your answer in gallons.
Calculate the mass of chlorine gas (Cl2) per day needed to treat the system's design flow
[lb/day].
Based on the provided data, plot a figure showing
