0.3 or 0.2 is the correct answer.

0.1 to 0.2 mg/litre for plain chlorination. So, the correct answer is 0.2.

And for pre-chlorination, it is 0.1.

Jay solanki said:   7 years ago
For plain, chlorination its a right answer.

Plain chlorination - 0.5mg/Lt.
Press chlorination - 0.1-0.5.
Post chlorination - 0.1-0.2.

Thanks all for explaining.

Heera said:   6 years ago
The normal dose of chlorine during plain chlorination is 0.5-1ppm.

It should be applied when the water is clear and its turbidity does not exceed 30 ppm.

Heera said:   6 years ago
The normal dose of chlorine during pre chlorination is 0.1 to 0.5 ppm.

This results in the oxidization of organic matter and reduces the amount of coagulants required in the water.

Heera said:   6 years ago
The normal dose of chlorine during post chlorination is 0.1-0.2ppm.

It is used for protection against contamination.
