Abstract:
The quality of water has to be controlled and monitored by drinking water suppliers during all stages of the treatment process from the water sources to the end of distribution systems. The research, performed in Czech Republic from 2006 to 2008, deals with the assessment of the affect of water tanks on the quality of water supplied to consumers, specifically from various points of view: microbiological, biological and physic-chemical changes in water accumulation. Also studied was the influence of the air on the quality of accumulated water (secondary contamination), the influence of the stru

Abstract:
Ground water is the purest form of water that can be in used agriculture and consumption purposes. Several factors have an impact on the quality of groundwater, including seasonal changes, the composition of dissolved salts, the water table’s elevation, and the geology of a particular location. The dumping of unexpurgated factory waste directly through watercourses, which results in substantial pollutants level in underground water as well as the surface, is the primary cause of groundwater contamination. As the human population increases, the groundwater becomes even more important for econom

Abstract:
Ground water is a vital source of fresh water in both urban and rural regions of the world. In Kerala, ground water meets the drinking needs of more than 60% population. Thrissur is the central district of Kerala, with a special well culture. Mostly each and every home has a dug well and ground water is the major source of drinking water in the district. Hence it is necessary to evaluate the ground water quality of Thrissur to ensure safe drinking water. Water quality index evaluation is an essential step to monitor, control and prevent the ground water pollution. The water quality index calcu

Abstract:
Water quality can affect human health in various ways: through breeding of vectors, presence of pathogenic protozoa, helminths, bacteria and viruses, or through inorganic and organic chemicals. While traditional concern has been with pathogens and gastro-intestinal diseases, chemical pollutants in drinking-water supplies have in many instances reached proportions which affect human health, especially in cases of chronic exposure. Treatment of drinking-water, often grossly inadequate in developing countries, is the last barrier of health protection, but control at source is more effective for p

Drinking water distribution systems (DWDSs) account for the majority of the infrastructure for transporting water from treatment plants to customers’ tap. During the transportation, water quality deteriorates due to the unavoidable accumulation of biofilm within the pipelines.

Within DWDSs using chloramine as disinfectant, nitrification caused by nitrifying bacteria is increasingly becoming a concern as it poses a great challenge for maintaining water quality.

In Pennsylvania, coal mining and treatment of conventional oil and gas drilling produced wastewaters have affected source water quality for over 100 years. The recent unconventional natural gas development in the Marcellus Shale formation produces significant volumes of wastewater containing bromide and has the potential to affect source water quality and downstream drinking water quality.

Abstract:
Approximately 80% of Virginians with private drinking water (PDW) sources are unaware of the quality of their drinking water. Strontium is a water quality contaminant gaining recognition at the federal level. At concentrations >1.5 mg/L, strontium substitutes calcium in the bones leading to bone density disorders (e.g. rickets). This is particularly problematic for children and individuals with low calcium and low protein diets. Because most Virginians do not know the quality of their PDW and since strontium poses a public health risk, this study investigates the sources of strontium in PDW in
