Process Monitoring and Water Quality Control in Drinking Water Treatment in Hong Kong
All raw water undergoes stringent water treatment process and disinfection at water treatment works in Hong Kong before supplying to consumers. Stringent water treatment combined with comprehensive monitoring of water quality and key process parameters at every stage of the treatment process are essential steps in water quality control and safeguarding the drinking water quality. Apart from the conventional treatment process comprising coagulation/flocculation, clarification, filtration and disinfection, relevant process parameters to ensure the performance of advanced treatment technologies including ozonation and biological filtration for water quality control would be introduced in the presentation.
