Drinking water supply safety is of paramount importance for human health. Disinfection is
considered as one of the most significant water treatment processes as it inactivates …

Water can be disinfected by various techniques. Chlorination is the most prevalent and the
cheapest method in this regard. One of the most significant factors in chlorination is the …

Chlorine remains the most widely used disinfectant in drinking water treatment and
distribution systems worldwide. To maintain a minimum residual throughout the distribution …

Effective disinfection is essential for maintaining water quality standards in distribution
networks. Chlorination, as the most used technique, ensures safe water by maintaining …

In order to achieve the required residual chlorine concentration at the end of a water
network, the installation of a re-chlorination facility for a high-quality water supply system is …

A fuzzy decision-making framework (DMF) is combined with a hybrid genetic algorithm–
linear programming (GA-LP) optimization approach to determine the best booster station …

Managing residual chlorine in large water distribution systems (WDS) to minimize human
health risk is a daunting task. In this research, a novel risk-based framework is developed …

In this paper, an index-based approach is proposed to locate chlorine booster stations in a
water distribution network (DN). Chlorination is a common practice for secondary …

Contaminant intrusion in a water distribution network (DN) has three basic pre-conditions:
source of contaminant (eg, leaky sewer), a pathway (eg, water main leaks), and a driving …

Good water quality in a water distribution system (WDS) can be reached by using flow
control valves (FCV) to reduce water residence time (WRT), and chlorine booster stations to …
