Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nitrate content of drinking water is rising at an alarming rate in several regions of NATO countries and elsewhere in the world. The increase is due to lack of proper sewage treatment, and primarily to excess fertilizer application. Also, eutrophication in several coastal areas is triggered by high nitrate concentrations. The main purpose of this book is to integrate scientific knowledge related to exposure assessment, health consequences and control of nitrate contamination in water. The motivation is related to the magnitude, the possible adverse health effects, and the high cost of control ling nitrate contamination. Future research tasks are defined by an interaction among hydro logists, toxicologists and environmental engineers in an integrated framework for nitrate risk management. The target readership of this book is a mix of university colleagues, practitioners from both the private and public sectors and advanced graduate students working with the hydrological, health science or environmental engineering aspects of nitrate contamination. The main conclusions include: 1. For risk assessment purposes, knowledge and sufficiently accurate models are available to predict nitrate load and its fate in water under changes in land use. 2. Once agricultural exposure controls are implemented, the response times in ground water may be so long as to make controls unrealistic. 3. It is still unknown whether agricultural best management practice is a compromise between nitrate risk reduction and agricultural revenue. 4. The current drinking water guidelines of 10 mg/L NOrN need not be changed.

Book excerpt: Nitrate contamination of potable water sources has become one of the most important water quality concerns across the United States. Nitrate presents unique water treatment challenges and small water systems are particularly affected by the high costs of addressing nitrate impacted supplies. The incidence of nitrate impacted drinking water systems, with respect to contamination, violations, and treatment, was assessed nationally, with particular emphasis on the state of California. Findings indicate that public water systems serving less than 3,300 people (very small and small water systems) are disproportionately affected by nitrate in potable water supplies, accounting for an average of 97.5% of systems in violation of the nitrate maximum contaminant level from 1998 - 2013. Of the 744,304 people served by national community water systems (CWS) that were non-compliant at least once from 2010 - 2013, 37.4% were served by systems in California. There were more systems in California in violation of the nitrate MCL between 2010 and 2013 than in any other state. Treatment measures have been proven effective and are in use at public water systems across the United States; anion exchange is the most common treatment technology implemented in the United States for nitrate removal. The disposal of waste residuals from drinking water treatment processes like anion exchange can be costly, particularly for small inland communities lacking the resources needed to identify the most affordable and sustainable waste management approach. Brine waste management options for small nitrate treatment systems in the Central Valley of California were examined with consideration of the feasibility, sustainability, and affordability of the available alternatives. Onsite evaporation, landfill evaporation, landfill solidification, and coastal wastewater treatment plant disposal were considered in detail with a base case scenario. Onsite evaporation ponds and transport of waste to a coastal wastewater treatment facility were identified as the least-costly, currently-available management options. In nearly all cases, the estimated minimum disposal costs associated with the base case scenario exceeded the average cost of tap water in the United States, $2.00/1,000 gallons. The minimization of brine waste through improved water recovery has the potential to significantly decrease disposal costs, by as much as 95%. Given the high costs of brine disposal options for individual small water systems in the San Joaquin Valley, the development of sustainable and affordable regional solutions is warranted to address the problem in a manner that can benefit multiple small water systems, as well as other brine producers in the region.
Download or read book Nitrate and Nitrite in Drinking Water written by and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Safe Drinking Water Act directs the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to establish national drinking-water standards for chemical and biological contaminants in public water supplies. The standards are to be set at concentrations at which no adverse effects on human health occur or are expected to occur from lifetime consumption, allowing a margin of safety; enforceable standards are standards that are feasible to achieve with the use of the best technology available. The standards are to be reviewed periodically to ensure continued protection of public health. Consistent with the requirement for periodic review, EPA asked the National Research Council to evaluate the current drinking-water maximum-contaminant-level goals (MCLGs) and maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) for nitrate and nitrite in public water supplies. The Subcommittee on Nitrate and Nitrite in Drinking Water, convened under National Research Council procedures, reviewed information on the occurrence and toxicity of nitrate and nitrite. The subcommittee evaluated this information in the context of the drinking-water standards for those substances and drew conclusions about the adequacy of the current standards to protect human health.
