If microbial contamination occurs in a drinking water?? What are the health procedure that must be taken in such this case ?
Hi Dr.
Solar-assisted bacterial disinfection and removal of contaminants of emerging concern by Fe2+-activated HSO5- vs. S2O82- in drinking water.

Dear Dr Lubna Abdulazeem , please treat the microbiota with great care, regarding them as the source our health, and protect them as much as possible.
A good health cannot be obtained without the help from the microorganisms (viruses, bacteria, fungi, ...), as they are the preys of our body to supply the essential nutrients, and these essential nutrients are not available in any of our foods other than these microorganisms:

Yet, each microorganism is a potential pathogen, will cause infection and immune reactions (like fever). Such infections are necessary in building our immunity:
Article Reconciling Hygiene and Cleanliness: A New Perspective from ...
Only after we have developed antibodies against the microorganism, we can use it as a nutrition source. So a good health cannot be built in short time. It may take years or tens of years to get the immunity against all the microorganisms around and inside us (the diverse human microbiome) and benefit from these microbiome.

Hi Dr.
There are many procedures used for traetment microbial contamination water like boiling and chlorozation
Hi Dr. In this case most be stop water supply then should be detects the sources of contamination and mange it, and use high concentrations of chlorine to sterilized the water supplies more than 5 ppm in water pools
Hi Dear
Firstly investigate the source of contamination to stop it.
Secondly prevent uses of contaminated water.
This depends on the type of microbes, in general, filtration of water is eliminate the contamination.
Its depend on contamination source but generally RO system is a good reaction
Well,
Base; Pollution or contamination removal, must be stopped and treated in the source.
Regards
I think the first stage is to validate if there is really contamination through microbial analyses. Secondly, it is good to establish the source of pollutants and if possible control it. Lastly, is to treat the water using a combination of physical, biological and chemical techniques to ensure the water is freed off all microorganisms.
The answer from Joan Nyika summarises the answer very succinctly. As each situation and each water supply system will require localised solutions.
It depends on the type of microorganisms that are found in the water. According to the Bulgarian legislation (Ordinance № 9, 16.03.2001 - on the quality of water intended for drinking and household purposes), synchronized with that of the EU, Escherichia coli, enterococci, coliforms and Clostridium perfringens are not allowed in 100 ml of water 0 CFU/100 ml.
Water quality, incl. and in terms of the content of microorganisms is controlled by the health authorities, in Bulgaria these are the Regional Health Inspectorates.
When deviations from the norm are established, the company that supplies drinking water to the people's homes is contacted in order to take measures for the decontamination of the water, and sanctions are imposed in case of violations.
When microbial contamination has been established 'Scientifically" :
1, Boil the water, if in a Rural or Suburban setting
2. Physical and Chemical treatments ( with bacteriocidal activity) should be adopted as is applicable to public water treatment
Dear researcher,
It is quite important issue concerned with water quality for drinking.
First of all, we have to be clear about type of pathogen present in water. Especially, in context of water related epidemics, it is more considerable.
In general context, we shall check the microbiological water quality with indicator organism (Escherichia coli or Thermotolerant bacteria) with consideration of WHO Guidelines (https://www.who.int/water_sanitation_health/publications/drinking-water-quality-guidelines-4-including-1st-addendum/en/).
Then, based upon type of use, different methods are possible if there is presence of indicator organism in the water considered for drinking.
For domestic use, we can use boiling or chlorination as common method.
If the water is to be consumed by larger population, it could be effective to recommend sand filtration (with post chlorination) or membrane technology based upon available resources/technology.
Of course, we shall be clear about microbiological contamination only after necessary examination to follow particular treatment method ahead.
Hi Dr.
Article Drinking water contamination and treatment techniques
Dear Dr.
Many procedures should be done >>1- Filtration performance 2- Chlorine concentration 3- Using of ozone
it can cause health effects, such as gastrointestinal illnesses, nervous system or reproductive effects, and chronic diseases such as cancer
Do the following; use.
UV water purifiers.
Water softeners.
Distillers.
Ceramic filters.
Ultrafiltration systems.
Hi
Detection source of contamination and sterilization process depend on type its.
