Abstract
In the field of drinking water production it is necessary to establish new regulations and guidelines, due to the decrease of the resource water quality. The paper presents the regulations in Europe and in the US, and the consequences on the evolution of the water treatment plants, depending on the water quality objectives and the quest for quality. Then two new technologies are proposed, concerning the using of membranes and ozone. The membrane processes are described and their application at some full scale plants are presented. The using of ozone as oxidation and disinfection agent is presented with the effect of the hydraulics on the quality of the water. The advantages of these two technologies are also described.
