This study aims to identify the possible sources in drinking water parameters heavy metal and organic parameters (HMOPs) and spatial variation between untreated water and treated water at Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur water treatment plant. The indicator HMOPs in drinking water in Kuala Lumpur were selected as parameters to discriminate the possible source of water treatment plants (WTPs) pollutant. Chemometric technique such as principal component analysis (PCA) and discriminant analysis (DA) was identified based on the five years’ availability data starting from 2012 to 2016. PCA were used to identify the most significant parameters which are highlighted eleven strong factors loading of parameter respectively out of sixteen for PCs and classified as possible sources in WTPs. Continue with DA analysis that is successful distinguish two categories region in WTP using the forward stepwise and backward stepwise with significant amount is 98.46%. From this study, we can conclude that this chemometric is the best technique of analysis to get a lot of information such as identify possible sources of pollutant and discriminant of two station sampling categories that will give novelty to Malaysian Ministry of Health (MOH) and collaboration agency in National Drinking Water Quality Surveillances Program (NDWQSP).

This study aims to identify the most significant parameters in drinking water quality, spatial disparities of treated water (TW) and performance of water treatment plant (WTP) in Selangor. Physico- chemical (PCPs), Inorganic (IPs), Heavy metal and organic (HMOPs) and pesticide (PPs) were selected as parameters to discriminate the source of WTP pollutant. Chemometric technique such as principle component analysis (PCA), one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and discriminant analysis (DA) was applied to validate the performance of water treatment plant. PCA identified the most significant parameters which are highlighted six out of eight parameters for PCPs, six out of twelve parameters for IPs, nine out of sixteen parameters for HMOPs and all seventh parameters for PP. ANOVA for distinguish two categories region in WTP and showed both of PCPs and IPs had significant differences due to their concentration (p < 0.5) and HMOPs suggested fifth of significant differences within regions (p < 0.05). PP doesn’t give any significant differences (p > 0.05). DA was suggested PCPs, IPs and HMOPs in good performance (76.96%, 91.90% and 93.27%) except PP (50.43%). We can conclude that this chemometric technique can expose which area of WTP need to be properly maintains their performance to produce high quality of drinking water.

Biological Nitrification

The implementation and evaluation of biological nitrification as a possible treatment option for the small-scale drinking water supply of a rural Upper Austrian community was investigated. The drinking water supply of this community (average system input volume: 20 m3/d) is based on the use of deep anaerobic groundwater with a high ammonium content of geogenic origin (up to 5 mg/l) which must be treated to prevent the formation of nitrites in the drinking water supply system. This paper describes the implementation and operation of biological nitrification despite several constraints including space availability, location and financial and manpower resources. A pilot drinking water treatment plant, including biological nitrification implemented in sand filters, was designed and constructed for a maximum treatment capacity of 1.2 m3/h. Online monitoring of selected physicochemical parameters has provided continuous treatment performance data. Treatment performance of the plant was evaluated under standard operation as well as in the case of selected malfunction events.

A Gram-positive, aerobic, non-motile, endospore-forming rod, designated DS22T, was isolated from a drinking-water treatment plant. Cells were catalase- and oxidase-positive. Growth occurred at 15–37 °C, at pH 7–10 and with <8 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum growth: 30 °C, pH 7–8 and 1–3 % NaCl). The major respiratory quinone was menaquinone 7, the G+C content of the genomic DNA was 36.5 mol% and the cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain DS22T was a member of the genus Bacillus. Its closest phylogenetic neighbours were Bacillus horneckiae NRRL B-59162T (98.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Bacillus oceanisediminis H2T (97.9 %), Bacillus infantis SMC 4352-1T (97.4 %), Bacillus firmus IAM 12464T (96.8 %) and Bacillus muralis LMG 20238T (96.8 %). DNA–DNA hybridization, and biochemical and physiological characterization allowed the differentiation of strain DS22T from its closest phylogenetic neighbours. The data supports the proposal of a novel species, Bacillus purgationiresistans sp. nov.; the type strain is DS22T ( = DSM 23494T = NRRL B-59432T = LMG 25783T).

Treatment Step

The performance of a drinking-water treatment plant is determined by the control of the plant. To design the appropriate control system, a control-design methodology of five design steps is proposed, which takes the treatment process characteristics into account. For each design step, the necessary actions are defined. Using the methodology for the pellet-softening treatment step, a new control scheme for the pellet-softening treatment step has been designed and implemented in the full-scale plant. The implementation resulted in a chemical usage reduction of 15% and reduction in the maintenance effort for this treatment step. Corrective actions of operators are no longer necessary.
