Chlorinator at Peak Flow Capacity Formula


Equation for calculate chlorinator at peak flow capacity is,

Cl2 (lb/d) = (Dosage) × (Avg flow) × (Peaking Factor) × (8.34)

where,
  • Dosage = dosage used to obtain coliform reduction
  • Avg. Flow = average flow
  • P.F. = peaking factor for average flow
  • 8.34 = 8.34 lb.L/Mgal.mg
  • Cl2 = Pounds of chlorine required per day (kg/d)
