In Kerala Water Authority, chlorine gas is used in conjunction with bleaching powder for disinfection purposes.During the use of chlorine gas from tonners, the dosage is kept at the requisite level by regularly adjusting the feeding valves. Sri Ajithkumar, Head Operator, KWA, developed a system for monitoring the feed rate of chlorine gas which also senses the level of the float in the chlorinator and alerts the operator in case the feed rate changes. A pilot project has been done at Aruvikkara Water Treatment Plant. This system was found to be very useful, and Kerala Water Authority plans to implement it.
