Abstract:

Most of the natural sources of water around the world are not always suitable for drinking without treatment. Microorganisms can be found in raw water from rivers, lakes, ponds and groundwater. Pathogens present in water can be transmitted through a drinking water distribution system, causing waterborne disease to those who consume it. Disinfection is a crucial water treatment method as it ensures that water is free of pathogenic micro-organisms causing water-borne diseases. In order to combat waterborne diseases, different disinfection methods are used to inactivate pathogens. The main aim of this paper is discussed different methods of disinfection, their suitability, limitation, factors influencing disinfection process, Chlorine by products and impacts of chlorine by products impacts on human beings.
