The Town of Tewksbury, Massachusetts, tested an aeration system for additional THM removal. The Tewksbury WTP measured real-time influent and effluent THM values using the online THM-100™ analyzer. Prior to using the online THM monitor, plant operators waited to receive analytical results from external analysis, often conservatively operating the facility since real-time THM values were not known. The real-time data provided by the online monitor made THM formation within the WTP and distribution system easy to identify.
