Genotoxicity testing of samples generated during UV/H2O2 treatment of surface water for the production of drinking water using the Ames test
in vitro and the Comet assay and the SCE testin vivo UV/H2O2 treatment can be part of the process converting surface water to drinking water, but would pose a potential problem when resulting in genotoxicity. This study investigates the genotoxicity of samples collected from the water treatment plant Andijk, applying UV/H2O2 treatment with an electrical energy dose of 0.54 kWh/m3 and a H2O2 dose of 6 mg/l. Genotoxicity was tested in vitro using ...

Enhancing climate adaptation capacity for drinking water treatment facilities
Conventional water treatment processes (e.g., coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, and filtration) are widely used for producing drinking water from surface water sources. Transient, gradual, or abrupt changes in source water quality that could compromise treatment effectiveness can be triggered by climate and related meteorological events, accidental or intentional contamination, ...

Risk assessment of haloacetic acids in the water supply of Tehran, Iran
Disinfection by-products are compounds occurring in drinking water as a result of reactions between disinfectants and impurities in raw water, and their occurrence has been a public health concern for the last four decades. Haloacetic acids (HAAs) are one of the major by-products of chlorination. The concentration and variation of HAAs was monitored in 540 samples taken from tap water in six ...

Integrated Water Resources Management for meso-scale ungauged river basins in Russia
In the last 5 years Russia developed Schemes of Integrated Use and Protection of Water Objects (SKIOVO) aiming at remediating and maintaining water resources quality. The main limitation of the schemes is seen in their large spatial scale, which is determined by the available environmental monitoring data. The meso-scale catchments are usually ungauged, which does not allow monitoring and ...

Drinking Water Treatment Process
Most drinking water comes from a surface water source, such as a lake or river, or a groundwater source, such as a well or spring. This water requires treatment before it can be safely consumed; the level to which the water is treated depends on the source of the water and also on federal regulations. In the United States, for example, the Safe Drinking Water Act was created by the Environmental ...

The MIEX® Technology for Municipal Wastewater Treatment
The MIEX® Technology is designed for the removal of dissolved organic carbon (DOC). Until recently, the commercial application of the MIEX® Technology has been limited the treatment of potable water from surface or ground water bodies. The MIEX® Process is now being evaluated for application in municipal wastewater applications. An example of this is the use of the MIEX® Process for the ...

Recent operational experiences of FILMTEC™ NF270 membrane in Europe
Nanofiltration (NF) is an attractive technology for potable and industrial water treatment because NF operates between ultrafiltration (UF) and reverse osmosis (RO) membranes. NF is designed to remove a high percentage of organic contaminants (humic acids, pesticides, color bodies) while passing a medium to high percentage of salt. Compared to UF membranes, the NF product water quality is ...
