报告摘要： Drinking water is distributed from the treatment facility to consumers through extended man-made piping systems. The World Health Organization (WHO) drinking water guidelines stated that “Water entering the distribution system must be microbiologically safe and ideally should also be biologically stable”. The biological stability criterion refers to maintaining the microbial drinking water quality in time and distance from the point of drinking water production up to the point of consumption.
Uncontrolled growth of indigenous bacteria during water transport can result in the deterioration of aesthetic aspects of water, such as taste, colour, and odour, in exceeding of guideline values, and in technical problems. Controlling bacterial growth in piping systems and premise plumbing is very challenging, and changes in drinking water microbial characteristics are often measured in networks distributing water with or without residual disinfectant.
The seminar will address the impact of (i) water, (ii) pipe materials and (iii) biofilms in the water distribution network on the biological stability of drinking water and discuss methods and new tools for evaluation of microbial drinking water quality.
