| Abstract |
Slow sand filtration research was conducted at Colorado State University in two phases, using 1 foot diameter filters. Phase I results showed removal of Giardia cysts exceeded 99.9 percent for the three hydraulic loading rates used. The most important operating condition was the development of a biopopulation within the sand bed. Removals of total coliform bacteria related well to the development of the biopopulation within the sand bed showing, 90 percent removal for a new sand bed operated at 0.40 m/hr filtration rate, and 99.99 percent removal for a mature sand bed and established schmutzdecke operated at 0.04 m/hr. In Phase II removals of total coliform bacteria ranged from 60 percent for the filter maintained with no biological activity (e.g., chlorinated between tests), to 99.9 percent for the filter having nutrients added. Removal for the control filter removal averaged 97 percent. |
