Abstract This report discusses unit processes and combinations of unit processes that are capable of removing contaminants included in the National Interim Primary Drinking Water Regulations. Construction and operation and maintenance cost curves are presented for 99 unit processes that are considered to be especially applicable to contaminant removal. The report is divided into four volumes. Volume 3 includes cost curves applicable to flows of 2,500 gpd to 1 mgd. For each unit process included in this report, conceptual designs were formulated, and construction costs were then developed using the conceptual designs.
