Riverbank filtration is a low cost, yet efficient water treatment
technology. It has most potential to provide safe drinking water to
large cities located along rivers or lakes. In particular, it is
ideal for large population centres in developing countries, where
the cost of building extensive treatment facilities is prohibitive.
Water filtration can be successfully implemented using naturally
occurring sand and gravel along the river/lake banks. The cost of
water produced by this means is much lower than that of water
treated in conventional treatment plants. Authored by a
multi-disciplinary team of experts, this volume addresses the
scientific basis of the filtration process, and also numerous
topics of importance for the planning, technical realization, and
security of such plants. Their application for the removal of
relevant chemical pollutants and a variety of pathogens is analysed
in detail.
