Book Drinking Water and Health  Volume 9

Download or read book Drinking Water and Health Volume 9 written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1989-02-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Research Council closes the landmark series Drinking Water and Health with Volume 9, published in two parts: Part I: DNA Adducts provides an overview of DNA adducts and their effects on human health, explores the techniques currently in use for detecting them, offers an outlook on future toxicity testing, and lists specific recommendations for action. Part II: Mixtures explores the issues surrounding multiple-chemical exposure from drinking water and reviews options for grouping compounds so their toxicity in mixtures can be reliably assessed. The book describes alternative approaches and considers the option of developing a modified "hazard index" for chemical compounds.

Book Significance and Treatment of Volatile Organic Compounds in Water Supplies

Download or read book Significance and Treatment of Volatile Organic Compounds in Water Supplies written by Neil M. Ram and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1990-02-26 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Significance and Treatment of Volatile Organic Compounds in Water Supplies reviews EPA-approved analytical methods for VOC analysis, QA/QC, data quality objectives and limits of detection. It covers current methods for the assessment of health effects, including toxicity and carcinogenicity. If you only purchase one book on VOCs-this should be it. Leading authorities present the latest essential information on VOCs in drinking water. This book will be a valuable resource to personnel involved with VOC contamination, treatment, costs, and regulation.

Book Drinking Water Health Advisory

Download or read book Drinking Water Health Advisory written by Jennifer Orme-Zavaleta and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1990-11-16 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health Advisories (HAs) are prepared by the Criteria and Standards Division, Office of Drinking Water (ODW) of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) in Washington, D.C. Documents summarized in this volume are part of the Health Advisory Program sponsored by ODW in response to the public need for guidance during emergency situations involving drinking water contamination. They provide technical guidance to public health officials on health effects, analytical methodologies, and treatment technologies associated with drinking water contamination. The HAs for 15 unregulated volatile organic chemicals were developed jointly by the Environmental Criteria and Assessment Office and ODW. Each HA contains information regarding the nature of adverse health effects associated with the contaminant and contaminant concentrations that would not be anticipated to cause an adverse effect following various periods of exposure. In addition, the HA summarizes information on occurrence, analytical methods, environmental fate, and treatment techniques for the contaminant.
