Abstract :
Chlorine decay was investigated in Isfahan Water Transportation Line. Bulk chlorine demand was determined using laboratory examinations on samples taken from treatment plant clear well. Besides, the relation between UV-adsorbance and chlorine decay was investigated. Results showed that bulk chlorine decay constant is in range of -0.0031 to -0.0042 hr-1 (mean of -0.0037 hr-1) and also showed that there is significant relation between UV-adsorbance and chlorine decay. Based on results wall chlorine decay had the highest effect on chlorine decay.
