A comparative study of high‐rate conventional treatment, direct filtration with granular media, and ozone–diatomaceous earth (DE) filtration for treatment for an upland water supply in an urban area focused on water quality, efficiency of operation and maintenance, and esthetic and cost considerations. For this particular application, the ozone–DE treatment proved to be the process of choice.
