Indian Standard

DRINKING WATER - SPECIFICATION ( First Revision )

1 SCOPS

The standard prC'cribes the requirements for the euential and desirable characteristics required to be tested for ascertaining the suitability of water for drinking purpose.

2 REPERENCES

The Indian Standard listed in Annex A are necessary adjuncts to this standard.

3 CHARACTERISTICS

3.1 The test characteristics are given in Table I.

3.2 Bacterialolleal ExamiaadoD

3.2.1 Waler III Dil"ibution System

Ideally. all samples taken from the distrtbution system including consumers' premises, should be free from coliform organisms. I n practice, this is nOl ah",ays attainable, and 'he following standard ff)r water collected in thr. distribution system is then-tore recommended whf"U tested in accordance with IS 1622 : 1981.

a) Throughout any year, 95 percent of sampk!l should not contain any coliform organisms in lOu ml;

b) No sample should contain E. Coli in 100 mli

c-) No sample should contain more than In coliform organisms per 100 mit and

d) Coliform organisms should not Le delect­able in lOO ml of any two consecutive sampJts.

3.2.1.1 If any coliform organisms are found the minimum action requirrd is immediate resampling. Th~ repeated finding of 1 to lO coliform organisms i~ 100 ml or the appearance of higher numbers in individual samples sug~("SlS that undf'siralJle mate~ riaJ i~ gaining accc!;s to the water and measures should at once be takc'n to discover and remov('" the source of the pollution.

to be placed on sanitary inlpeet.ioo and not exclu­sively on the results of bacteriological examination. Everything possible should be done to prevent pollution of the wat~r. Obvious sourcel of contamination should be removed from the immediate catchment area, speCIal attention being gi.ven to the safe disposal of excrement. We lis and storage tanks should be protected by lining a::ld covering, surface drainage should be dl\,prtt'd, erosion prevented and the surrounding area p.Jved Access of man and animals should be r~nrlned hy fencing. alld should be so dc<,jgned that fouling is prevented when dra.wing ~ater. A !though not supplied through pipes, water from such sourc~S is IIkdy to UOdf"1 gu further deteriora­tion in quality durmg transplI(t or storage befor~ dl inkirt~ Containers u!ed foc water should he kq>t dean, covert"d and dear of the floor. The most important faclor in achleving these objec­tives is to ("nsure the cooperalion of the local r.ommulIilY. and the importance of education in simple sanitary hygiene should be strongly stres­!oed. In h05pital~ or medical clinics with such sHpplie~. the value of some form of treatment is ~tressed.

3.2.7.1 Bacteriologically, the objective should be to reduce the coliform count to less than 10 per 100 ml, but more importantly. to ensure the ahs("nce of faecal coliform organisms. If these organisms are repeatedly found, or if sanitary inspection reveals obvious sources of pollution whIch cannot be avoided, then an alternative source of drinking water would be sought, when­("ver possible. Greater use should be made of protected ground ... wat~r sources and raw-water catchm~nt which are more Jikely to meet require­mt=nt, for potable water quality.

3.2.2.2 Although private sources of drinking wakr may he outside the jurisdiction of public health and watt:T supply authorities, such suppJit!s should still be of potable quality. The results of bacterio­]ogir.al tests and those of sanitary surveys should tht"r("fore be used to encourage improvem~nt. Partial treatment may be necessuy to remove turhiditv ,.ven when coliform ('ounts are low: and other qual ity criteria may dictate the need for treatment procenes.

3.3 Virological ExamiDadoD

3.3.1 It is theoretically possible that virlls di"('asr. ran be transmitted by water free from coliform ()n~t\nism~, but conclusive evidence, that this has occurred, is lacking.

3.3.2 None of the generally accepted sewage trea&mcnt methods yield virus.free effluent. AJ· tbough a number of investigators have found aaivated sludge ~re ... tment to be superior to trickling filters from thi. point of view, it seems pOl'ible that chemical precipitation methods will prove to be the mOlt effective.

3.3.3 Virus can be isolated from raw wattr and from .pringa. Enterovirus, reovirus, and adenovi· rus have been found in water t the fir!ll named beinl the most resistant to chJorinatio'l. If entero .. viru1 are abient from chlorinated water. it can be assumed t hat the water is safe to drink. Some uncertainty It ill remains about the virus of infec­tious bepadtil, since it has not so far been isolated but in view of the morphology and resistance of enterovirus it i. Jilcely that, if they have bf'en inactivated hepadtia virus will have been inactiva­ted also.

3.3.. An e"rnendal relationship exists hetwcen the rate 0 virus inactivation and the redox potential. A redox potential of 650 mV (mea,ured between platinum and calomel elt'ctrodts) will cause almost in.tantaneoUi inactivation of even high concentrations of virus. Such a potential can be obtained with even a low cencentration of

4

free chlorine, but only with an extremely higb concentrauon of combined chlorine. This oxida. tive inactivation may be achieved with a number of other oxidants also, for example. iodine, ozone, and potassium permanganate, but the effect of the oxida.nts will always be counterac;te<! if f~;>.duc .. iog components. which are mainly organic, :tfe

present. As a consequence, the sensitivity of'UI towards desinfectanu will depend on the .~ just as much as on the particular disinfec It used.

3.3.5 Thus, in a water in which free chJori.m! is present. active virus will generally be absent if coliform organisms are absent. In contrast, be­cause the difference between the resistance 0.­coliform organisms and of virus to disinfection by oxidants increases with increasing concentration of reducing componenu, for ex~mple. organic matter, it cannot be assumed that the absence of viable coliform organisms implie~ freedom from active virus under clrrumstan~C5 where a free chlorine residual cannot be maintained. Sedimen­tation and slow sand filtration in themselves may contribute to the removal of virul from water.

3.3.6 In practice, 0'5 mgtl of free chlorine for one hour is sufficient 10 inactivate virua, even :n water that was originally polluted.
