CHEMICAL INJECTION PUMP CONTROLS
The TWPS uses three identical chemical injection pumps, one for each of three different purposes. The
controls on each of the three pumps are the same. The three pumps are:

water before it is discharged into the MF feed tank when the raw water contains chlorine in order
to neutralize the chlorine.
- Antiscalant Chemical Pump: Dispenses a measured amount of Antiscalant into the filtrate to
inhibit salt scale formation on the RO membranes.
- Calcium Hypochlorite Chemical Pump: Dispenses a measured amount of Calcium Hypochlorite
into the product water before it is discharged to the distribution tanks to kill and prevent microbial
