Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Filtration of River Waters: For the Supply of Cities, as Practised in Europe, Made to the Board of Water Commissioners of the City of St. Louis Gentlemen: In obedience to instructions received from the Board of Water Commissioners in December, 1865 (see Appendix), I have visited Europe for the purpose of understanding the modes in practice there for the filtration or clarification on a large scale of river waters, where these are made use of for domestic purposes in the supply of cities. To this end I have visited the cities of Genoa, and Leghorn, in Italy; of Marseilles, Toulouse, Lyons, Tours, Angers, and Nantes in France; of Berlin, Hamburgh, and Altona in North Germany, and of London, Leicester, York, Liverpool, Edinburgh, Perth, and Dublin in Great Britain. I submit herewith statements descriptive of the modes of filtration in use at each of these places. The obtaining of this information has occupied much more time than I had anticipated. In many places it was found impossible to get at all the details and statistics which were desirable, without a larger expenditure of time and money than your instruct ions, however liberally construed, would have warranted. What may be wanting, however, in the description of one place will generally be found in another. No one but the superintendent or engineer of each work, who had watched the process of filtration from year to year, could give minutely all the experience which each place learns for itself. The process, however, unless where the areas were incommensurate with the service, was in England everywhere successful. The conditions were simple, well recognized, and easily understood; and when, as in two instances particularly, they were violated, it was but temporarily - the increase of area required being acknowledged, and being about to be corrected.

Download or read book Riverbank Filtration for Water Security in Desert Countries written by Chittaranjan Ray and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-11-17 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Riverbank filtration is a low cost, yet efficient water treatment technology. It has most potential to provide safe drinking water to large cities located along rivers or lakes. In particular, it is ideal for large population centres in developing countries, where the cost of building extensive treatment facilities is prohibitive. Water filtration can be successfully implemented using naturally occurring sand and gravel along the river/lake banks. The cost of water produced by this means is much lower than that of water treated in conventional treatment plants. Authored by a multi-disciplinary team of experts, this volume addresses the scientific basis of the filtration process, and also numerous topics of importance for the planning, technical realization, and security of such plants. Their application for the removal of relevant chemical pollutants and a variety of pathogens is analysed in detail.

This book was released on 2020-12-04 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York City's municipal water supply system provides about 1 billion gallons of drinking water a day to over 8.5 million people in New York City and about 1 million people living in nearby Westchester, Putnam, Ulster, and Orange counties. The combined water supply system includes 19 reservoirs and three controlled lakes with a total storage capacity of approximately 580 billion gallons. The city's Watershed Protection Program is intended to maintain and enhance the high quality of these surface water sources. Review of the New York City Watershed Protection Program assesses the efficacy and future of New York City's watershed management activities. The report identifies program areas that may require future change or action, including continued efforts to address turbidity and responding to changes in reservoir water quality as a result of climate change.
