Bottled drinking water (AMDK) is raw water that is processed, packaged and safe to drink (meets physical, chemical and bacteriological requirements) including mineral water and demineralized water. The physical requirements for drinking water quality include color, taste, turbidity and odor. The purpose of this study is to determine the turbidity of bottled drinking water circulating in Banyuwangi with the measurement method using a Turbidimeter. This is observtional research was conducted in April 2019 with 13 samples. The sampling technique used is purposive sampling. The average result of measurement of water turbidity level is 0.31 NTU, meaning that it meets the SNI 01-3553-2006 standard on Bottled Drinking Water so that it is safe to consume if viewed from turbidity parameters. Bottled Drinking Water is said to be feasible and safe to consume if it meets the requirements specified in SNI 01-3553-2006 concerning Bottled Drinking Water, which does not exceed the maximum threshold value that has been determined. Turbidity or turbidity of bottled drinking water (AMDK) originating from mountain springs raw water sources has a lower value compared to turbidity AMDK with groundwater raw water sources.

This research was initiated from the Pamsimas program targets have not yet been achieved. The causes were limited water sources and raw water supply, sanitation and hygiene behavior, public awareness of the importance of healthy living behavior was low. This study was to describe and analyze the implementation of the Pamsimas program and the supporting/inhibiting factors of the Program. This study used a qualitative approach by selecting key-informants based on a purposive sample technique. The results showed that the the implementation of the Pamsimas Program in Blora Sub-district was not optimal in terms of the variables as a prerequisite for program implementation. These prerequisites tend to be rigid, making it difficult for program implementers in the field to make decisions that are not included in the standard operational procedures (SOP). On the other hand, the individual and community behavior and participatory to the program in supporting the provision of clean water to be positiveBesides that the factors of limited water sources and raw water supply, unsafe sanitation and drinking water remained unsolved. Recommendations of the conclusions of the study are the delegation of authority related to the bureaucratic structure, especially the standard operating procedures (SOP) and the absence / scarcity of raw water sources for clean watethat needs attention to program managers in the field.

Refill drinking water Depot is an industry that does the processing of the raw water into drinking water and sell directly to the consumer. Mn metal and bacterial Coliform is an indicator of refill drinking water polluters. This research aims to find the factors influencing the quality of Microbiology and chemistry at the depot drinking water drinking water refill Tulungagung district. Research using survey method with Cross sectional approach is analytical. The sampling technique used was Simple Random Sampling with a sample of 89 depot drinking water refill. Technique of data analysis using Regression and Logistic regression test linear. Independent variable examined was the source of raw water, the depot operator hygiene of drinking water, hygiene, sanitation, which covers three aspects namely sanitary location, building and facility sanitation. The results showed from 89 depot examined known as much as 79.8% sanitation facilities are not qualified, the value of the MPN 59.55% of eligible and levels of Mn 100% qualified. From Regresilogistik test results between independent variable with the value of the MPN indicate significance of 0.008 < (α = 0.05) on sanitation facilities are variable. This means there are influences between facilities sanitation microbiological quality of drinking water. On Linear regression test results between independent variable with the value obtained significance levels of Mn 0.47 > ((α = 0.05) which means no influence between independent variables with the chemical quality of drinking water. The lack of sanitation facilities increases the potential for bacterial contamination through the operator. Therefore the availability of on-site sanitation depot drinking water is a major factor that affects the quality of drinking water microbiology refills.

Problems caused by cyanobacteria are common around the world and also in raw water sources of drinking water treatment plants. Strains belonging to genera Microcystis, Anabaena and Planktothrix produce potent hepatotoxins, the microcystins. Laboratory and pilot scale studies have shown that microcystins dissolved in water may pass the conventional surface water treatment processes. In 1998 the World Health Organization proposed a guide value of 1 μg/L for microcystin-LR (MC-LR) in drinking water. The purpose of this research was to study the occurrence of microcystins in raw water sources of surface waterworks and in bank filtration plants and to evaluate the removal of microcystins in operating waterworks. Four bank filtration plants and nine surface waterworks using different processes for water treatment were monitored. Phytoplankton was identified and quantified, and microcystins analysed with sensitive immunoassay. Microcystin occurrence in selected water samples was verified with HPLC and a protein phosphatase inhibition method. Microcystins were detected sporadically in raw water sources of most of the waterworks. In two raw water supplies toxins were detected for several months. The highest microcystin concentrations in incoming raw water were approximately 10 μg/L MC-LR equivalents. In treated drinking water microcystins were detected occasionally but the concentrations were always below the guide value proposed by WHO.

The protozoan parasites Giardia and Cryptosporidium have been described as important waterborne disease pathogens, and are associated with severe gastrointestinal illnesses. The objective of this paper was to investigate the presence of Giardia cysts and Cryptosporidium oocysts in samples from watershed catchments and treated water sources. A total of 25 water samples were collected and examined according to the US EPA—Method 1623, 2005, consisting of 12 from drinking water and 13 from raw water. Positive samples from raw water for Giardia cysts and Cryptosporidium oocysts were 46.1 and 7.6%, respectively. In finished water, positive samples were 41.7% for Giardia cysts and 25.0% for Cryptosporidium oocysts. Concentrations of Giardia cysts found in raw water samples ranged from “not detected” to 3.4 cysts/L, whereas concentrations of Cryptoporidium oocysts ranged from “not detected” to 0.1 oocysts/L. In finished water, Giardia concentrations ranged from “not detected” to 0.06 cysts/L, and Cryptosporidium, from “not detected” to 0.01 oocysts/L. Concentrations of Giardia cysts and Cryptosporidium oocysts were not high in the samples analyzed. Nevertheless, the results of this study highlight the need to monitor these organisms in both raw and drinking water.

The quality characteristics of raw water sources in the regional integrated drinking water supply system (SPAM) of Banjarbakula were investigated and found to maintain the supply of drinking water quantity and quality in accordance with drinking water standards. The optimum model for the mixing process of raw water and poly aluminum chloride (PAC) and pump stroke for the input of water sources from rivers to obtain a composition setting that is in accordance with the raw water sources of each region in the region was selected and determined. So the optimum parameter setting model between alum water, raw water and pump stroke for each raw water source is known and is regionally integrated as a result of a comprehensive study. The integration of Taguchi parameter design and response surface can complement each other and become two methods that go hand in hand in the process of optimizing clean water products. Parameter design provides a very practical optimization step, the basis for this formation refers to the factorial fractional experimental design. However, the absence of statistical assumptions that follow the stages of analysis makes this method widely chosen by researchers and practitioners. With the experimental design of the raw water mixing process, turbidity such as 5 lt/sec, 10 lt/sec, 15 lt/sec, 20 lt/sec and 25 lt/sec and % PAC concentration 5 ppm, 10 ppm, 15 ppm, 20 ppm and 25 ppm with a pump installation stroke of 5 %, 10 %, 15 %, 20 % and 25 % were used. In the process of adding PAC, always pay attention and observe the behavior of the attractive force of the floating particles (flock). The particles were then subjected to SEM (scanning electron microscopy) to determine the dimensions of the flock grains deposited

This paper deals with the occurrence of Giardia and Cryptosporidium in the water sources available for the Goreangab Reclamation Plant (GRP) and the subsequent removal during treatment at the reclamation plant. Giardia is detected more often than Cryptosporidium. 60% of the time it is detected in the samples from the dam and in 55% of the samples from the maturation pond effluent. During the investigation, Giardia was detected in the final water 5% of the time and Cryptosporidium 2% of the time. The maximum Giardia cysts detected in a sample was 30, the 99% percentile was 20 and the 97% percentile 10 cysts. A maximum of 20 Cryptosporidium oocysts was detected in a sample. The 99% percentile counted 6.2 oocysts and the 97% percentile 0 oocysts. From the data presented it is clear that the polluted dam water has the same risk level of Giardia and Cryptosporidium pollution as treated wastewater effluent. This emphasises the fact that the sources should be monitored continuously for these parasites. The sporadic high counts of Giardia and Cryptosporidium in the raw water sources indicate that a multiple-barrier approach must be followed to ensure the safe operation of even conventional treatment plants using polluted source water. No correlation could be found between cyst and oocyst removal and other water quality parameters. The advocating of a final water turbidity of 0.1 NTU and the use of particle counters can only be supported by these findings, as it is possible to achieve a turbidity of less than 0.1 NTU at the sand filter outlet, even in a developing country like Namibia. The challenge lies with the maintenance of equipment and vigilance of the operators.

Abstract The presence of pharmaceuticals and personal care products in the environment is a rapidly emerging international issue. A variety of drugs have been found in sewage effluents and surface waters in Europe, the United States, and Canada. This study examines the presence of selected pharmaceuticals (8 acidic drugs) and the antimicrobial substance, triclosan, in raw water and finished water of drinking water plants across southern Ontario. Twenty drinking water treatment plants that represented a variety of water sources and treatment process parameters were sampled. None of the raw or finished water samples taken from wells showed detectable levels of any of the acidic drugs or triclosan. River water samples downstream of sewage effluent outfalls showed the highest levels of contamination of the source water. Levels of naproxen and ibuprofen were elevated to levels as high as 176 and 150 ng/L, respectively, in raw water entering the treatment plants from a river source. Low levels of gemfibrozil (19.2 ng/L), diclofenac (15 ng/L), indomethacin (6 ng/L), and the antimicrobial triclosan (34 ng/L) could be also detected in raw water from river sources. Raw water taken from large lakes also had very low but detectable levels of several acidic drugs, suggesting that these chemicals are widespread in the environment. Although treatment systems are not designed to remove these specific types of substances, most of the acidic drugs were not detectable in finished waters. Naproxen and triclosan were detectable in finished water but were significantly reduced in concentration relative to the raw water. The concentration of ibuprofen was detectable in the finished water of almost all treatment plants that used surface water as a source. This work demonstrates the potential of Ontario source waters, particularly river water sources, to contain trace levels of selected pharmaceuticals and personal care products. There is a need to complete a more comprehensive assessment of these compounds in source waters and of the factors influencing their treatment and removal from finished drinking water.
