The Critical Role of Chemical Pre-Treatment in Ensuring Cryptosporidium Removal by Filtration of High Quality Source Water
(University of Waterloo, 2019-05-01)Drinking water utilities reliant on surface water utilize chemically-assisted filtration (CAF) as a key barrier against the passage of protozoan pathogens, like Cryptosporidium spp. oocysts, to treated water. The goal of ... -
Cryptosporidium and Particle Removal from Low Turbidity Water by Engineered Ceramic Media Filtration
(University of Waterloo, 2008-05-29)A series of pilot-scale granular media filtration experiments was conducted to examine the effect of media roughness on filter performance and to evaluate the applicability of spherical, rough engineered ceramic filter ... -
Removal of MS2 Bacteriophage, Cryptosporidium, Giardia and Turbidity by Pilot-Scale Multistage Slow Sand Filtration
(University of Waterloo, 2007-05-16)This research aimed to address the knowledge gaps in the literature regarding the removal of waterborne pathogens (viruses and protozoa) by modified multistage slow sand filtration. In the current study, two pilot-scale ...
