The intent of the program is to ensure compliance with the methods and procedures outlined in ASME/AWWA
Standard C651-14 and meet the bacteriological standards.

System Details:

12 cubic meter external network

2. INTRODUCTION

The disinfection process will be carried out in accordance with the latest standards as following:

 American Water Works Association. 2014 ANSI/AWWA C651-14 - AWWA Standard for Disinfection
of Water Mains. Approved by American National Standards Institute.
 American Water Works Association. 2005 ANSI/AWWA C652-05- AWWA Standard for Disinfection
of Water –Storage Facilities.

The construction, rehabilitation, and repair of water tanks & mains are extremely common activities
that occur on a regular basis in all water systems. The relative frequency and nature of these activities
represent a potential contamination risk to water distribution systems if proper procedures and
existing standards are not followed. Installation and repair of water mains provides the potential for
direct contamination of the distribution system.

PURPOSE :

This procedure is developed to assure the external and internal drinking water distribution network a are
properly disinfected and meet the American Water Works Association Standard forcommunity water
systems.

METHOD STATEMENT ( INTERNAL BUILDING PIPING NETWORK)

STAGE I : PRELIMINARY FLUSHING

Before being chlorinated, potable water, drinking water Tanks ( If Available) & distribution piping
networks need to be flushed with fresh water to remove sedimentand other foreign matter.

The potable water, drinking water tanks (If Available)& distribution piping networks should be
completely filled withwater to eliminate air pockets and then flushed to purge the line of dirt and
debris. This is typically conducted after the completion of the leakage and pressure tests. Adequate
drainage must be provided during flushing.

Ineffective removal of dirt and debris from lines prior to disinfection often leads to failed bacterial tests,
requiring repeated disinfection.

STAGE II : DISINFECTING AGENT AND METHOD OF CHLORINATION

 The disinfection of the potable water, drinking water distribution piping networks on a stabilized
pH< 8.5 will be carried out with sodium Hypochlorite solution as defined in thedisinfection procedure
as per AWWA Standards (ASME / A.W.W.A. C651/C652) of Potable Water, Drinking Water Tanks
and allassociated distribution piping networks to maintain 50 ppm.

 The injection to all associated distribution piping networks till chlorinated solution is observed and
tested to the all points. ( Chemicals will be charged directly the temporary storage tanks)

STAGE III: FINAL FLUSHING OF MAINS

 After confirmation of the chlorine residual as required for 24 hours exposure, neutralizing agent will be
dosed to neutralize the chlorinated water.( Environmentally Safe Dispose)

 Once the chlorinated water is properly neutralized and discharged, the entire new main shall be flushed
with fresh water until it is clean and clear.

 Continuously flush the entire system with clear potable water until the replacement water throughout
the new pipeline can be proved, by laboratory testing, comparable in quality to the incoming water.

WATER TECHNOLOGIES
BACTERIOLOGICAL TESTING
©
According to AWWA C651, after final flushing and before the new water main is connected to all associated
distribution piping networks, 3-5 water samples for each level floor will be taken from different points for
bacteriological tests.

All samples shall be tested for bacteriological in accordance with Standard Methods for the Examination of
Water and Wastewater.

Sampling Procedure — samples for bacteriological analysis will be collected in sterile bottles treated with
sodium thiosulfate, as required by Standard Methods of the Examination of Water and Wastewater. No hose or
fire hydrant shall be used in the collection of samples.

Control Values:

Free chlorine : 50 ppm (disinfection process)

Free chlorine : 0 - 1.0 ppm max after flushing/de-chlorination

Total Bacteria : 0/ml

 HYDREX 4301
Product information

Reducer Agent

Description and Use

Hydrex 4301 is a food grade liquid product used as reducer , removing dissolve oxygen and residual free
chlorine or combined. It is specially formulated for reverse osmosis systems with polyamide membrane where
the chlorine existence can affect the membrane.

Advantages
• Food grade quality , free of any impurities.
• Cost - effective concentrate
• Easy to use liquid formulation.

Application Information 08
/

12
When RO or NF membrane is used in the RO/NF process, the feed must be dechlorinated to prevent oxidation
of the membrane. Dosage rate will be dependent upon the level of free chlorine present in the water system.
-
The suitable dose is 10 ppm of Flydrex 4301 for each ppm of active chlorine. O
-
I
§
Although the dechlorination itself is rapid, good mixing is required to ensure completion. Static mixers are
1
recommended. The recommended injection point is downstream of the cartridge filters in order to protect the £
filters by chlorine. In this case, Flydrex 4301 solution should be filtered through a separate cartridge before
being injected to the RO feed.

The absence of chlorine should be monitored using and oxidation - reduction potential (ORP) electrode
I
downstream of the mixing line.

Please consult your VWS representative for detailed instructions regarding the application of the product.
