This paper puts forward the problems existing in the conventional drinking water treatment and expounds the necessary of improving drinking water treatment based on the present water pollution situation and the more stringent water quality standard. According to the existing economic and technical condition in our country, strengthen the conventional drinking water treatment should be done in advance. Besides, adding the pretreatment and depth treatment into the water treatment process is also necessary in the future. For the technology of pretreatment, biological pretreatment technology is the worthiest to study. For improving the conventional drinking water treatments, study the morphology and kinetics mechanism of coagulation is very necessary. For the technology of depth treatment, the activated carbon and biological activated carbon technology will be the main development trend.

The occurrence of pesticides even at low concentrations in drinking water sources might induce potential risks to public health. This study aimed to investigate the removal mechanisms of eight pesticides by the nitrifying expanded-bed filter using biological activated carbon media at the pretreatment of a drinking water plant. The field analysis demonstrated that four pesticides Flutolanil, Buprofezin, Chlorpyrifos, and Fenobucard, were removed at 82%, 55%, 54%, and 52% respectively, while others were not significantly removed. Under controlled laboratory conditions with continuous and batch experiments, the adsorption onto the biological activated carbon media was demonstrated to be the main removal pathway of the pesticides. The contribution of microorganisms to the pesticide removals was rather limited. The pesticide removals observed in the field reactor was speculated to be the adsorption on the suspended solids presented in the influent water. The obtained results highlighted the need to apply a more efficient and cost-effective technology to remove the pesticide in the drinking water treatment process.
