Book excerpt: The best papers from the three-day conference on Safe Drinking Water from Source to Tap June 2009 in Maastricht are published in this book covering the themes of challenges of the water sector and adaptive strategies, treatment, distribution, risk assessment and risk management, sensors and monitoring, small scale systems, simulation, alternative water supply & sources, consumer involvement, and future drinking water. Worldwide, the water supply sector is facing tremendous challenges. Every new emerging contaminants and pathogens and aging infrastructures that are vulnerable for deliberate contamination pose a threat to the quality of water supplies. Shortage of good quality and readily treatable resources is increasing due to global warming, urbanisation and pollution from agriculture and industry. Regulators and consumers are becoming more demanding. Techneau - the largest European project on drinking water - addresses these challenges by developing adaptive supply system options and new and improved treatment and monitoring technologies. Future system options to be studied are flexible, small scale and multi-source supplies, utilising non conventional resources like brackish ground water, treated wastewater and urban groundwater.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 20 years ago, when our children were very small, I felt the need for better drinking water quality and I purchased a small counter top appliance that hooked up to the water tap. It didnt take long before I realized that this was just a bandaid and that something more powerful was needed and thus I embarked on a mission to educate myself about home drinking water filtration systems. This was pretty much in the days before I had a computer, so I looked at trade magazines and sent for every drinking water brochure I could find, read them all and compared for quality and price. This convinced me very quickly of the benefits and affordability of solid carbon block technology and I ended up with a company that took the water filtration business very seriously and in my opinion did produce and still produces

Book excerpt: An in-depth look at the changing approaches that environmentalists, governments, and the open market have taken to water through the lens of world history. When we turn on the tap or twist open a tall plastic bottle, we probably don’t give a second thought about where our drinking water comes from. But how it gets from the ground to the glass is far more convoluted than we might think. In this revised edition of Drinking Water, Duke University professor and environmental policy expert James Salzman shows how drinking water highlights the most pressing issues of our time. He adds eye-opening, contemporary examples about our relationship to and consumption of water, and a new chapter about the atrocities that occurred in Flint, Michigan. Provocative, insightful, and engaging, Drinking Water shows just how complex a simple glass of water can be. “A surprising, delightful, fact-filled book.” —Jared Diamond, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Guns, Germs, and Steel “Instead of buying your next twelve-pack of bottled water, buy this fascinating account of all the people who spent their lives making sure you’d have clean, safe drinking water every time you turned on the tap.” —Bill McKibben, author of Earth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet “Drinking Water effortlessly guides us through a fascinating world we never consider. Even for people who think they know water, there is a surprise on almost every page.” —Charles Fishman, bestselling author of The Big Thirst and The Wal-Mart Effect “Salzman puts a needed spotlight on an often overlooked but critical social, economic, and political resource.” —Publishers Weekly

The sources of drinking water, the types of human activities that results in contamination, and the contaminants that are of most concern are discussed. The workings of a typical treatment plant, who is responsible for ensuring the safety of drinking water, the requirements and effectiveness of the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) of 1974, and the substantive changes made by the 1986 amendments to the act are described. Next, this guide surveys the various problems and issues in the management of drinking water. Discussions on how best to provide safe drinking water, what is considered safe, and what it will cost to provide a safe supply of drinking water are topics of discussion. The handbook concludes with a Guide to Citizen Action, designed to help readers learn more about the quality and management of local drinking water and to take action on issues of local concern as well as protect home water supplies. A glossary is provided, followed by a resource list that includes publications, national environmental organizations, health information organizations, professional membership organizations, state drinking water contacts, and organizations represented by contributing authors.
