Question

What are typical concentrations of pathogens in raw water used for drinking water?

Answer

+ Show code

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]
