This book takes a broad and eclectic view of the water that all
humanity depends upon, probing its role in human life and in the
history of our planet, as well as surveying the latest scientific
understanding of purification techniques and standards for the
protection of water quality.
The volume opens with a chapter on the role of drinking water in
human life, which discusses the planet s water resources, the
quality of drinking water, water and health, the advent of water
quality standards, Green chemistry and more. The chapter concludes
by discussing the relationship of the biosphere and human
civilization. Chapter Two explores the unique properties of water,
the role of water in the scenario of development on Earth. Also
covered is the current understanding of the importance of the
isotopic composition of water, in particular the ratio of protium
to deuterium, which is fundamental to life. The third chapter is
devoted to Water Clusters, examining the structure, properties and
formation of clusters. Also covered here is theoretical research on
the interaction of water clusters with ozone, the impact of
temperature on water clusters and more. Chapter Four is devoted to
drinking water and factors affecting its quality. Discussion
includes ecological and hygienic classification of centralized
drinking water supply sources, water quality requirements, and
problems and potentialities of drinking water preparation. The
author introduces a new concept for supplying the population with
high-quality drinking water. The fifth chapter examines the
peculiarities and problems of water decontamination, with sections
on chlorination, ozonation, the bactericidal effects of ultrasound
and ultraviolet rays and more. Chapter Six offers a thorough
exploration of the theory, means and methods of bio testing as an
evaluation method for the quality of drinking water. The final
chapter discusses new state standards for drinking water, as well
as requirements and methods of quality control.
The concluding selection relates the urgent need to measure,
evaluate and protect the quality of drinking water and describes a
new state standard of drinking water quality."
