The sizing of halogen feed systems is dependent upon the form of the<br />

halogen used <strong>and</strong> the method of distribution. Sample calculations are<br />

presented below.<br />

Sample calculations:<br />

Estimate of sodium hypochlorite dose - liquid feed<br />

Halogen: NaOCl - trade strength 15% (150 g/l)<br />

Dose required: 20 mg/l available chlorine<br />

<strong>Wastewater</strong> flow: 200 gpd average<br />

1. Available chlorine =<br />

(150 g/l) x (3.785 l/ga<br />

2. Dose required =<br />

(20 mg/l) x (3.785 l/ga<br />

= 1.67 x 10s4 lb/gal<br />

3. Dose required =<br />

(1.67 x 1O-4<br />

4. NaOCl dose =<br />

(3.34 x 1o-2<br />

) x (1.0 lb/453.6 g) = 1.25 lb/gal<br />

) x (1 lb/453.6 g) x (10m3 g/mg)<br />

b/gal) x (200 gal/d) = 3.34 x 10m2 lb/d<br />

b/d) + (1.25 lb/gal) = 0.027 gal/day<br />

Estimate of haloqen desian - tablet feed<br />

Halogen: Ca(OCL) tablet - 115 g; commercial strength 70%<br />

Dose Required: 29 mg/l available chlorine<br />

<strong>Wastewater</strong> Flow: 200 gpd (750 l/d)<br />

1. Available chlorine in tablet = 0.7 x 115(g) = 80.5 g/tablet<br />

2. Dose required = 20 (mg/l) x 750 (l/d) = 15 g/d<br />

3. Tablet consumption = B<br />

or: 5.4 days/tablet<br />

15 (g/d)<br />

. 5 ( g,tab,et] = 0.19 tab1 ets/day<br />
