Why is it Necessary?

The Australian Drinking Water Guidelines (ADWG) devised in 1996 and revised in 2004 defined:

  • “Drinking water as water intended primarily for human consumption but has other domestic uses”
  • “Drinking water should be safe for use and aesthetically pleasing. Ideally it should be clear, colourless, and well aerated with no unpalatable taste or odour and it should contain no suspended matter, harmful chemical substance or pathogenic micro organisms”
  • Micro biological guidelines seek to ensure that water delivered to consumers contains no pathogen (disease –causing) micro organisms

Hence the need for disinfection!
