Description
Control of Microorganisms in Drinking Water provides a comprehensive survey of the state of the art in drinking water treatment methods and technologies. The report brings together academics, practicing engineers, and environmental scientists to provide insight into the risks posed by microbes in drinking water and more importantly, their control through treatment and disinfection. It is written in such a manner as to provide both an overview of the subject for non-specialists and a valuable technical reference for experienced practitioners. The chapters include: Risks Posed by Pathogens in Drinking Water; Microbially-mediated Corrosion and Water Quality Deterioration; Indicator Concept and Its Application in Water Supply; Removal of Organisms by Flocculation/Sedimentation; Air Stripping and Aeration; Slow Sand Filtration; Rapid Sand Filtration; Granular Activated Carbon/Biological Activated Carbon; Control of Microorganisms in Drinking Water by Pressure-Driven Membrane Processes; General Kinetics of Disinfection Processes; Chlorine and Chloramines; Chlorine Dioxide in Drinking Water Treatment; Ultraviolet Disinfection; Ozone Disinfection in Drinking Water; and Emerging Pathogens of Concern in Drinking Water.
