Drinking water hygiene

A summary of the studies on the use of stainless steels for water heaters and pipelines has been compiled by the CEOCOR [37]. Reference is made to the very small amounts of corrosion products released by the materials, which is of great importance in respect to drinking water hygiene.

Water quality demands in different water usages often ask for a specific treatment. Drinking water in particular has to meet strict quality standards from both the chemical and microbiological point of view to ensure a hygienically and toxico-logically safe water supply for the population. The role of NOM in water treatment is many-sided and closely related to the adverse effects of NOM with respect to human consumption. There is...

Water use facilities and goods. People have adequate facilities and supplies to collect, store, and use sufficient quantities of water for drinking, cooking, and personal hygiene, and to ensure that drinking water remains sufficiently safe until it is consumed (Sphere Project, 2004).

In principle, consideration has to be given to any measure that prevents faecal-oral HAV infection, e. g. correct hygiene procedures - particularly in risk situations. Generally, for water and food, is required Cook it, peel it or forget it This includes the (worldwide) purification of drinking water and the operation of reliable sewage plants.

Acute viral diarrheal illness often occurs in day care centers and nursing homes. As person-to-person contact is the mechanism by which viral disease spreads, isolation techniques must be initiated. For bacterial, parasite, and protozoal infections, strict food handling, sanitation, water, and other environmental hygiene practices can prevent transmission. If diarrhea is secondary to another illness, controlling the primary condition is necessary. Antibiotics and bismuth subsalicylate are advocated to prevent traveler s diarrhea, in conjunction with treatment of drinking water and caution with consumption of fresh vegetables. 

Eor travellers to highly endemic areas, the usual elementary food hygiene precautions are recommended. These include avoiding drinking water and/or ice of unknown purity and eating uncooked shellfish, uncooked fruits or vegetables that are not peeled or prepared by the traveller (WHO 2005). 

THE QUALITY OF THE DRINKING WATER - THE MAIN FACTOR INTO THE SOCIO-HYGIENIC MONITORING... 

Abstract. This study was performed to evaluate the drinking water quality used for drinking purposes by the population of Chisinau. There were present the comparative data of chemical composition of drinking water from aqueducts, the wells from Chisinau and suburbs as well. All quality indices from aqueduct in comparison with the water from rural sectors and town wells correspond to hygienic standards. High mineralization and high concentration of some chemical compounds are common for water from suburb and Chisinau wells. 

The hygienic evaluation of the drinking water quality used for drinking purposes by the population of Chisinau. 

The majority of the population from Chisinau town use drinking water from aqueduct. In principle all quality indices from aqueduct are diminished and more favorable in comparison with the water from rural sectors and town wells and correspond to hygienic standards, depending on the majority-studied indices. A little part from population of Chisinau town use for drinking the water from wells, as seen from the existing facts in Table 1 don t differ from the drinking water from suburb s wells. 

Abstract. The biofilm formation in drinking water distribution systems depends on many factors and may cause a number of technological and hygienic problems. In this study, the influence of pipe material and flow velocity on the biofilm growth dynamics and its impact on microbiological water quality in a model of drinking water distribution system were assessed.
