Record 1 1982-03-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Water Treatment (Water Supply)
CONT

The pH of the dechlorinated water falls during [the] reaction. This dechlorination action is characterized by the half-dechlorination depth, that is, the depth of the filter bed which, for a given speed, causes the reduction by one half of the amount of chlorine in the water. The pH has considerable influence on this depth.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Traitement des eaux
CONT

Le pH de l'eau déchlorée s'abaisse au cours de la réaction. On caractérise cette action déchlorante par la longueur de demidéchloration: c'est la hauteur de lit filtrant qui, à une vitesse donnée, provoque une diminution de moitié de la dose de chlore dans l'eau. Le pH a une grande influence sur cette longueur.
