Abstract :
Sanitizing water via chlorination in remote areas is vital for individual and community health. Systems with no controls rely on frequent testing, and highly automated systems are expensive and require technical support. There is a need for a simple control with a minimum of sensors along with a simple algorithm to control these chlorination processes. An algorithm is presented that only requires sensing current and also minimizes the amount of chlorine testing.
