Special Offer: KWR Drinking Water Treatment Set - Buy all five
books together and save a total GBP119! Ever since the recognition
of the important role of water in the transmission of pathogenic
micro-organisms in the 19th century, microbiological safety of
drinking water has been a major research issue for microbiologists
in the drinking water industry. The main objective of this book is
to develop a general strategy to assess elimination capacity of
water treatment processes for pathogens. It investigates: The
potential use of faecal indicators Coli44, (including E. coli) and
SSRC, (including C. perfringens) as process indicators to assess
pathogen elimination in full-scale water treatment plants. The
value of comparative challenge tests with pre-cultured organisms
for the assessment of elimination capacity of full-scale processes,
to study the effect of process conditions and to validate the use
of process indicators. The use of literature data to assess
elimination capacity of water treatment processes for pathogens and
the effect of process conditions on this. Visit the IWA WaterWiki

Special Offer: KWR Drinking Water Treatment Set - Buy all five
books together and save a total GBP119! The overall aim of
Elimination of Micro-organisms by Water Treatment Processes is to
present default values for the micro-organisms elimination or
inactivation credit of universally used processes in water
treatment (MEC or MIC). The growing interest in Quantitative
Microbial Risk assessment (QMRA) for safe drinking water requires
such data. These MEC or MIC values have been calculated from
research on elimination of viruses, bacteria and bacterial spores
and protozoa (oo)cysts (Cryptosporidium and Giardia) by these
treatment processes published in the international literature. The
data have been selected on the base of different quality criteria
related to information on applied experimental conditions and used
methods. Furthermore the studies have been categorized on base of
their similarities with 'real world' conditions (selected
micro-organisms, scale and conditions of the tested processes). The
international literature data revealed a high variation in
elimination. The major parameters and process control parameters
affecting elimination are described. This new edition describes the
state-of-the-art progress in research on conventional treatment,
coagulation and flocculation, rapid granular filtration, slow sand
filtration and UV disinfection. Visit the IWA WaterWiki to read and
