Quality control and checking Authorities• EPA – All water• FDA – bottled water• Water available for drinking may include contaminants that pose no
health risk

Temperature
• The temp. determines the kind of species that can thrive in the water• Thermal pollution leads to:• Loss of oxygen from water ( molecules agitated, loose, allowing oxygen to
escape)• fish population is affected
![Page 6: Public Health Engineering - Concepts Regarding Water](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062614/547a2ef15906b530358b465b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Dissolved Oxygen/BOD
• Measurement of oxygen present in water• Chemical and biological processed use up oxygen• Oxygen in water necessary for fish to thrive• Water with low BOD is considered healthier for human consumption

pH
• Hydrogen concentration in water• Affects how water reacts with different chemicals

TDS/TSS/Salinity
• Dissolved and suspended solids• Suspended solids affect turbidity of water.• Turbidity is the amount of haziness of water• Dissolved solids impact BOD and chemical properties of the water
TSS
TDS

Abiotic and Biotic
• Abiotic factors are the non-living components of an ecosystem• SWATS - Soil, Water, Air , Temperature, Sunlight• Climate
• Biotic factors are the living components of an ecosystem• All living organisms
![Page 13: Public Health Engineering - Concepts Regarding Water](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062614/547a2ef15906b530358b465b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Why solids dissolve in water
• Hydrogen bonding in water allows many inorganic and organic substances to dissolve in water • Water molecules have a polar arrangement of hydrogen and oxygen
atoms allowing the charges on them to attract a multitude of other compounds.• Water contains both organic and inorganic as well as living and non-
living substances, not all of which are harmful.

Sampling
• We take only a portion of water that represents in bulk the properties of the entire water body.• Saves money, time, energy and human effort.
![Page 24: Public Health Engineering - Concepts Regarding Water](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062614/547a2ef15906b530358b465b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Sample types
• Representative: represents properties of the constituents present in water in bulk amount.• Grab: Sample taken at any time and at any point within the water
body.• Composite: Grab samples mixed to produce a representative sample

Analytical protocol
• Sample collection• Storage and presentation• Preliminary treatment (drying,sieving,filteration)• Volumetric or weighing dilution (to prevent instabilities)• Sample extraction or digestion• Tests – chromatography or spectroscopy• Reporting results

Distribution of contaminants
Distribution type Description Random ScatteredUniform Homogenous distribution across entire
bodyStratified Layered distribution Patchy Scattered concentrations

Sampling approachesApproach Description
Judgemental Based on personal knowledge or experience or on preliminary test results or visual inspection
Random Samples collected randomly assuming distribution is homogenous
Stratified Random Sampling area divided into non-overlapping areas of homogeneous distribution (temporal or spatial)
Systematic Dividing sampling area into square or triangular grid and taking samples at nodes of each unit or at the same location within each unit.

Factors affecting transpiration and evaporation• Temperature• Wind speed• Humidity• Solar radiation
![Page 32: Public Health Engineering - Concepts Regarding Water](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062614/547a2ef15906b530358b465b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Transpiration measurement
• Phytometer• A hermetically sealed vessel potted with certain plants• Weight measurements determine a plant’s need for water• Cannot simulate natural conditions
![Page 33: Public Health Engineering - Concepts Regarding Water](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062614/547a2ef15906b530358b465b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Zone of aeration and saturation
• Aeration: (vadose)• Contains small amounts of moisture. Acts as a zone of transmission rather
than storage.• Gravity water, capillary water and hygroscopic moisture (water held by strong
molecular forces)• Mositure cannot be tapped as a water supply source
• Saturation: (phreatic)• Pore spaces filled with water called groundwater• Aquifer is a stratum consisting of a substantial amount of groundwater.• Water table or phreatic zone serves as the interface between the two zones

Sewers
• Shambles , Meat packing , waste dumped in streets• Storm sewers arose• Sanitary waste = domestic wastewater• Combined sewers• Sanitary sewers• Collecting sewers collect wastewater from households • Intercepting sewers or interceptors drain wastewater from collecting
sewers and allow this wastewater to flow to treatment plants
![Page 50: Public Health Engineering - Concepts Regarding Water](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062614/547a2ef15906b530358b465b/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Infiltration and inflow
• Groundwater enters sanitary sewers is infiltration• Inflow is storm water enters sanitary sewers , Unintentional
collection.
