MEASUREMENT OF OXYGEN TRANSFER IN CLEAN WATER

Abstract

Measurement of Oxygen in Clean Water, ASCE/EWRI 2-06, provides the latest methods for measuring the rate of oxygen transfer from diffused gas and mechanical oxygenation devices to water. A complete revision of ANSI/ASCE 2-91, this Standard represents the current consensus of the ASCE Committee on Oxygen Transfer Standards. ASCE/EWRI 2-06 is applicable to laboratory scale oxygenation devices with water volumes of a few gallons as well as to full scale systems with water volumes typical of those found in the activated sludge wastewater treatment process. It is intended for use by engineers in the preparation of specifications for compliance testing and by manufacturers in the development of performance information.
