Water Treatment & DistributionIn general, interpreting ATP data from water applications is quite straightforward since results simply represent the active microbiological content at any given location. However, the suggested guidelines vary depending on the application, as shown below:
NOTE: Control guidelines are provided as a suggested starting point; actual control targets should be established by comparing ATP tests to process performance in each application.
When performing trending and correlation analyses, it is recommended that data smoothing (moving averages) be used to remove noise. In general, select a smoothing period corresponding to a number of days between the hydraulic retention time of process being analyzed.
