Large-scale, chlorine-free disinfection for your drinking-water and wastewater treatment plants. No trihalomethane risk, a high-capacity scalable design.
The Problem
At municipal scale, chlorination increases the risk of carcinogenic by-products such as trihalomethanes (THMs) in large volumes. It can also be insufficient against chlorine-resistant pathogens (Cryptosporidium, Giardia).
In large-volume chlorination, carcinogenic by-product formation becomes unavoidable.
Some pathogens such as Cryptosporidium are highly resistant to chlorine.
Chlorine residue causes taste and odor complaints in mains water.
Storing and transporting large volumes of chlorine carries a safety risk.
System Concept
OCS-MUNICIPAL PLUS offers a four-stage architecture at municipal scale.
The plant's flow rate, existing infrastructure and target water-quality parameters are assessed.
Large-scale ozone production units are designed to scale with parallel modules.
An ozone + biological activated carbon (BAC) combination can be applied for advanced treatment.
SCADA integration provides continuous monitoring compatible with municipal infrastructure.
Solution Areas
Primary disinfection and pathogen control.
Final treatment before discharge and color/odor removal.
Ozone + BAC for advanced organic-matter removal.
Central control integrated into municipal infrastructure.

FAQ
Usually ozone is used as primary disinfection, while a low dose of chlorine can be kept for residual disinfection in the network. This is determined by regulations and site analysis.
It varies by facility scale and existing infrastructure; a detailed project schedule is provided after the site assessment.
No, it's optional. It's recommended at facilities with high organic-matter load.
Yes — the PLC control system is designed to integrate with standard SCADA protocols.
A pathogen-specific dose is set by calculating the target CT value (concentration × contact time).
