Question
What are typical concentrations of pathogens in raw water used for drinking water?
Answer
Rationale
Raw water has been categorized based on its source and cleanliness:
- Ground water - clean
- Clean groundwater
- Groundwater - surface water contamination
- for ex. shore infiltration
- Surface water - low contamination
- Relatively clean surface water
- Surface water - medium contamination
- for ex. low waste water contamination
- Surface water - high contamination
- for ex. waste water contamination
Data
The concentrations are based on experts' estimates on concentrations of different pathogens in different kinds of raw water sources and contamination situations. [1] [2] [3] [4]
Obs | RawWaterClass | Pathogen | Unit | Result |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Ground water - clean | campylobacter | microbes/l | 0 |
2 | Ground water - clean | E.coli O157:H7 | microbes/l | 0 |
3 | Ground water - clean | rotavirus | microbes/l | 0 |
4 | Ground water - clean | norovirus | microbes/l | 0 |
5 | Ground water - clean | sapovirus | microbes/l | 0 |
6 | Ground water - clean | cryptosporidium | microbes/l | 0 |
7 | Ground water - clean | giardia | microbes/l | 0 |
8 | Ground water - surface water contamination | campylobacter | microbes/l | 0 |
9 | Ground water - surface water contamination | E.coli O157:H7 | microbes/l | 0 |
10 | Ground water - surface water contamination | rotavirus | microbes/l | 0 |
11 | Ground water - surface water contamination | norovirus | microbes/l | 0 |
12 | Ground water - surface water contamination | sapovirus | microbes/l | 0 |
13 | Ground water - surface water contamination | cryptosporidium | microbes/l | 0 |
14 | Ground water - surface water contamination | giardia | microbes/l | 0 |
15 | Surface water - low contamination | campylobacter | microbes/l | 1 |
16 | Surface water - low contamination | E.coli O157:H7 | microbes/l | 1 |
17 | Surface water - low contamination | rotavirus | microbes/l | 0.1 |
18 | Surface water - low contamination | norovirus | microbes/l | 0.1 |
19 | Surface water - low contamination | sapovirus | microbes/l | 0.1 |
20 | Surface water - low contamination | cryptosporidium | microbes/l | 0.1 |
21 | Surface water - low contamination | giardia | microbes/l | 0.1 |
22 | Surface water - medium contamination | campylobacter | microbes/l | 50 |
23 | Surface water - medium contamination | E.coli O157:H7 | microbes/l | 50 |
24 | Surface water - medium contamination | rotavirus | microbes/l | 1 |
25 | Surface water - medium contamination | norovirus | microbes/l | 1 |
26 | Surface water - medium contamination | sapovirus | microbes/l | 1 |
27 | Surface water - medium contamination | cryptosporidium | microbes/l | 10 |
28 | Surface water - medium contamination | giardia | microbes/l | 50 |
29 | Surface water - high contamination | campylobacter | microbes/l | 1000 |
30 | Surface water - high contamination | E.coli O157:H7 | microbes/l | 1000 |
31 | Surface water - high contamination | rotavirus | microbes/l | 100 |
32 | Surface water - high contamination | norovirus | microbes/l | 100 |
33 | Surface water - high contamination | sapovirus | microbes/l | 100 |
34 | Surface water - high contamination | cryptosporidium | microbes/l | 100 |
35 | Surface water - high contamination | giardia | microbes/l | 500 |
Calculations
Put the data in this page into an ovariable
The raw water default class: Surface water - high contamination
Use the ovariable to only include data from one raw water class
