A concept for an integrative consideration of the drinking water and wastewater/sewage management

摘要

To guarantee drinking water of high quality not only the drinking water treatment must be of high standards but also the quality of water resources should be the best possible. Therefore, pollution control and pollution risk management in the catchment areas of water resources are important parts of an overall water management concept. This includes the assessment of physical and chemical parameters as well as bacteriological parameters, especially hygienic parameters. A concept for an integrative consideration of drinking water treatment and quality management of water resources is presented. (C) 1998 IAWQ. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. [References: 3]
