摘要

Early concerns about drinking water quality were focused solely on water's aesthetic value, i.e., appearance, taste, and smell. Ancient civilizations focused on improving the taste and odor of drinking water Removing water turbidity (cloudiness) was the driving force for treating waters of objectionable taste and appearance (Hall and Dietrich, 2000; U.S. EPA, 2000). The importance of contaminants in drinking water was recognized in the late nineteenth century when a link between water quality and public health was recognized. The pioneering work of British surgeon Joseph Lister and German Scientist Robert Koch (1870s-1880s) in bacteriology demonstrated the presence of microorganisms in water supplies and the need for preventive measures (Baker and Taras, 1981). In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, when enteric diseases such as typhoid fever and cholera were prevalent, efforts of scientists and engineers were focused mostly on producing disease-free drinking water supplies.
