What's the Cost of an analysis to estimate Disinfection By-Products concentration in case of using:
1- Ozonation
2- Chlorination
In both Drinking Water and Bottled Water.
(Cost of equipments and Operation)
I'm sorry Mr. Messaoud Djeddou,
I do not work on the costs of drinking water treatment, but my research is focused on the cost of drinking water distribution services.
You can find these types of costs in the production of drinking water units (ADE).
Have a good day
Pretty broad question. Are you looking for a specific group of DBPs? Regardless, suggest contacting a commercial laboratory certified to do the analyses in drinking water, such as Eurofins Eaton Analytical LLC:

They should be able to give you their cost breakdown for the different analyses.
Messaoud,
As Rick suggested it would be best to contact your local Analytical laboratory and ask how much they charge to run EPA method 524.2 which is a GC/MS method that reports over 80 VOCs including thecommon THMs and EPA method 552.3 a GC/MS method for the Haloacetic Acids.
Here in California the cost for running method 524.2 is ~ $130.00
Method 552.3 is ~$45.00

Dear Carr,
Thank you for your answer, another question arises, the operator of a Water Treatment Plant will have to pay daily (140$ + $ 45) to ensure compliance with standards?
Best regards
Messaoud
Compliance monitoring is usually not a daily requirement for most plants. The typical frequency is likely to be quarterly, semi-annually or yearly. Of course your country or State monitoring requirements may vary.

if there is a kits to measure your disifection by products it will easy and faster but may be it will more expensive but will be fixed cost becaue it will be the same cost for whole world but for the instruments such GC/MS or HPLC with usinf differnet methods and different column I think you will pay more and different from country to another
