摘要:

This article discusses design criteria that are essential to a properly functioning water system under conditions that exist in developing countries. Emphasis has been placed upon the necessity for including in design and specification considerations the concept of obtaining a supply or plant that will be maintained and operated after it is installed. From a practical viewpoint, this means having and applying knowledge of the cultural, social, and economic practices of the people for whom the supply is being provided. It also involves making provision for the proper training of those who will operate the plant.

摘要:

Under a program sponsored by the U.S. Agency for International Development (AID), the firm of Camp, Dresser&McKee was selected by the government of East Pakistan to prepare a study of the feasibility of an overall program for providing more water of safe quality and improving general sanitation in East Pakistan. The article first provides an overview of East Pakistan, including physical characteristics, climate, economy, existing water supplies, and then goes on to make recommendations related to developing a water supply program.

摘要:

The objective of this study was to investigate parameters relating to the use of cationic polyelectrolytes as prime coagulants, and not as aids, in the treatment of natural waters. The experimental approach was divided into two parts. The first part consisted of a series of laboratory jar tests, using eight cationic polyelectrolytes, Potomac River water, and, for comparative purposes, natural water from four other area sources. The laboratory studies, which evaluated the effects of pH, hypochlorination, mixing rate, and color removal, were followed by full‐scale plant studies using a 3,000‐gph water purification unit, Potomac River water, and the most promising polyelectrolyte, as determined by the laboratory study.
