The Kinetico K5 drinking water station with Purefecta cartridge clearly passed the test when examined by the Bactiquant®-water method (US-EPA, verified technology) developed by Mycometer. The method is based on a highly sensitive fluorescence technology which is used to detect and quantify an enzyme activity in bacteria. The fluorescence produced is directly proportional to the content of bacteria in the water sample. The Bactiquant®-water method is a patented method, currently in use worldwide (US 7.939.285). Mycometer visited the Kinetico Export Center in Denmark on November 21st 2013 and a series of water tests were conducted in the Kinetico water lab by using the Mycometer instrument.
Globally, over 80% of the wastewater generated by society flows back into the environment without being treated or reused.1Clean water is an essential part of daily life, from catchment all the way through to wastewater treatment, therefore analysis throughout the whole cycle is crucial. Whether in lakes, pipes, or bottles, we can accompany you with our range of instruments, test kits and applications for your water and wastewater needs.

The technical performance of a precoat filter was compared with that of a traditional sand filter. Particle concentration and size distribution were measured before and after the filtration of swimming pool water. Both the sand and precoat filters could reduce the particle concentration in the effluent. However, higher particle removal efficiency was generally observed for the precoat filter, especially for particles smaller than 10 μm in diameter. Adding flocculant improved the removal efficiency of the sand...
Significance and Use
5.1 This test method describes a rapid method to determine the maximum quantity of oxygen that may be consumed by impurities in water. As outlined in Test Methods D1252, chemical oxygen demand is typically used to monitor and control oxygen-consuming pollutants, both organic and inorganic, in domestic and industrial wastewaters. This photoelectrochemical oxygen demand test method is specific for measuring organics and inorganics in freshwater sources for drinking water treatment plants and...

In this paper, we analyze perceptions and determinants of households' participation in a randomized experiment on water quality testing and information in southern Ghana. Beneficiary households assessed the components of the intervention including its relevance and adequacy in improving understanding of water quality issues. Motivating and constraining factors to participation in the randomized experiment are also assessed. We also estimate the correlates of participation in the intervention. Social and economic...
