Santa Cruz Adopts THM Analyzer for DBP Management
The City of Santa Cruz Water Department (SCWD) has adopted the online THM-100™ THM analyzer for DBP management. Real-time and reliable data on THM and THM Formation Potential levels within the Graham Hill Water Treatment Plant and distribution network have been provided to the SCWD by the online analyzer. The THM-100 online analyzer has aided the SCWD in daily operations and management of feasibility studies to reduce distribution systems THM levels.

AMS Online Instruments Featured at ACE15
Online THM and Trace Metals Instruments from Aqua Metrology Systems Featured at ACE15
Online THM and trace metals analytical instruments from Aqua Metrology Systems (AMS) will be featured at the ACE15 annual conference and exposition in Anaheim, California.
The THM-100™ online monitor provides automated, unattended measurement of THMs. Leading drinking water utilities and engineering groups have come to value the high frequency and reliable data provided by the THM-100; enabling a firm and immediate understanding of THM values so they can better anticipate problems and maintain optimal treatment conditions. The THM-100 is cited as the key element in real-time THM data gathering in three ACE15 technical session presentations.
- The City of Birmingham will present Online THM Analyzer Used to Optimize Chlorine Disinfection Process and Minimize DBP Formation in Alabama in the TUE15
- Corona Engineering will present High THMs? Strip‘em Away! Full-Scale Demonstration of Two Aeration Strategies for Removal of TTHM from Treated Water in the TUE38
- San Jose Water Company and Pax Water Technologies with Utility Services Group will present Energy-Optimized Large-Scale THM Removal: Results from a 12-MG Reservoir, San Jose, California in the TUE38
During ACE15, AMS will also unveil their novel SafeGuard™ online trace metals analyzer for chromium VI and selenium. The SafeGuard analyzers discriminate between selenite (Se4) and total inorganic selenium and chromium-6 and total chromium; providing complete process control to proactively manage, control, mitigate and remediate trace metals contamination.

In a newly released Water Research Foundation (WRF) report, TTHM concentration results from the THM-100™ analyzer yielded excellent results. Throughout the duration of the demonstration testing, results obtained from the AMS THM-100™ analyzer were within ± 10% of laboratory results. In addition to the TTHM concentrations, the individual THM species concentrations also matched very well between the AMS instrument and the laboratory.
Evaluation of the field TTHM analytical instruments demonstrated that these instruments are easy to install and operate, can generate TTHM results quickly, and most importantly accurate and precise.
