Alum Dose
A preliminary experiment was Preliminary experiments were run to determine if better filtration performance could be achieved after dosing 5 NTU raw water with alum. A very high dose of alum was used, 25 mg/L, which is fairly unrealistic. To achieve this alum dose level, it would be necessary to install another alum doser prior to the filtration unit.
