Abstract |
The results obtained from evaluating ten GAC POE (point-of-entry) devices show that while these GAC units generally function very satisfactorily, their performance can change markedly over short periods of time. These units require conscientious, periodic monitoring. The monitoring of the operation of the POE (and POU) units appears to be a significant shortcoming in the application of this technology. During the course of the study, operation and maintenance problems were encountered with three of the ten units monitored. Several institutional models exist and are described for achieving the desired degree of supervision and control over individual or small private water systems. |
