PREFACE

Drinking Water: Quality Control, Distribution Systems and Treatment
focuses on some of the technologies involved in water treatment processes,
such as adsorption, co-precipitation, flocculation, and coagulation.
The authors emphasize the newest easy processes, inadequacies, and
prospects of drinking water treatment.
In one study, a simple effective intervention for biochanin A in influent
water using ZSM-5, a nano-porous crystalline zeolite, is described.
In closing, a Sphingomonas paucimobilis strain isolated from an Indian
drinking water system was evaluated for its ability to co-aggregate and form
mixed biofilms with Salmonella typhimurium, Shigella flexneri, and
Escherichia coli O57:H7. (Imprint: Nova)
Chapter 1 - Nowadays, heavy metal ion pollution in water has gained
considerable attention from many research groups across the world. These
are highly carcinogenic even at comparatively low concentrations because
of their tendency toward bioaccumulation and non-biodegradable nature.
Thus, water contamination has also increased public concern. Although,
various methods are being used to treat the water and waste water, which are
fast and cost-effective. In this continuation, effective water treatment
methods have been manufacturing; intense research has been carried out,
those having an insignificant effect on the environment and the minimum
use of chemicals at a lower cost. The three primary factors have been utilized
for the implementation and development of water treatment technologies,

i.e., the proclamation of new water quality standards, cost efficiency, and
the discovery of new rarer contaminants. Previously, the only treatment
processes that have been virtually utilized in municipal water treatment are
granular media filtration, chlorination, and chemical clarification. Though,
in water treatment processes, a dramatic change has been seen in
consideration of alternative treatment technologies to the traditional
chlorination/filtration purification method from the past 20 years. This
chapter categorizes and focuses on some of these technologies such as
adsorption, co-precipitation, flocculation, and coagulation at substantial
scale water treatment. This chapter will focus on adsorption technologies to
treat water and wastewater.
Chapter 2 - Approximately two million people die annually because of
contaminated drinking water and unsafe sanitation practices. The generation
of heavy metal ions is one of the prominent causes of water pollution. Heavy
metals such as lead, mercury, chromium, and arsenic exist naturally, but
anthropogenic activities cause contamination in water. The World Health
Organization (WHO) reports that approximately 1 billion people across the
world don’t have an approach to clean drinking water. This count is
presumed to eventually increase with increasing population i.e., 7.7 billion
(2019) from 7.5 billion (2018), energy requirement and climate change.
There are many commercially available methods to detoxify water from
heavy metals, while they are liable to rejection because of: less efficient,
expensive, generate hazardous toxic waste and energy-consuming. This
chapter will explore some advanced treatment methods, which are in use like
metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), UV irradiation, etc. Some traditional
techniques are still in use like adsorption, reverse osmosis, electrodialysis
and so on. Although they serve the purpose, either cannot address these
problems quickly, economically, long-term stability or high performance
despite development on the technical side. The challenge is to provide
solutions which are a universal or single solution, inexpensive, has ease of
implementation, cent percent efficiency, and domestic use. The functional
integration of different technologies or treatments may solve the current
water hazards. Impending water shortage will lead to detoxifying the water,
which is now considered undrinkable. This chapter will emphasize the
