When it comes to medical wastewater, many people naturally feel somewhat concerned, worrying about the potential harm if such wastewater is discharged directly. That’s why relevant authorities repeatedly emphasize the importance of properly treating medical wastewater. Additionally, before discharge, it is essential to conduct online monitoring of medical wastewater using water quality analyzers to ensure compliance with standards before release.
Some might wonder why monitoring parameters like coliform bacteria and other viral indicators in medical wastewater is important. Actually, monitoring total residual chlorine is equally crucial. Why is that? As mentioned earlier, the presence of coliform bacteria and other viruses indicates that medical wastewater contains a large number of pathogens, which must be eliminated through treatment before discharge. Chlorine disinfectants are commonly used for disinfecting such wastewater. The amount of chlorine disinfectant applied determines how many bacteria in the water are eliminated. However, it is difficult to achieve a perfect balance—applying too much or too little chlorine is common. If too little is applied, additional doses are required. Therefore, installing a total residual chlorine online analyzer is necessary to monitor the application of chlorine, control the dosage, and ensure that the water quality does not suffer from excessive disinfection leading to levels of total residual chlorine.
In summary, it should be clear that monitoring total residual chlorine in medical wastewater is just as important! The RCl900 Total Residual Chlorine Online Analyzer uses photometric methods to detect the total residual chlorine content in water. This instrument is a fully automated device, offering accurate measurements and high cost-effectiveness. It is suitable for real-time monitoring of total residual chlorine during chlorination disinfection processes. It complies with standards in various industries, including environmental protection, healthcare, and power generation, and can also meet environmental acceptance requirements.
What are the consequences of excessive total residual chlorine? Excessive use of chlorine in water can produce toxic and carcinogenic substances. If consumed by humans, the consequences are unimaginable! Measuring the total residual chlorine content in water is crucial for assessing disinfection effectiveness and environmental water quality. Therefore, it is not something to be taken lightly. Assuming that monitoring coliform bacteria and other pathogens alone is sufficient is incorrect. In addition to monitoring pathogenic bacteria, other conventional indicators, including total residual chlorine, are equally important and indispensable!
