A review of literature on the removal of inorganic contaminants from drinking water / prepared for the Northern River Basins Study under project 4402-D1 by L.E. Liem, S.J. Stanley and D.W. Smith.R71-49/3-88E-PDF

"Water is essential to life and it can be an important vector for conveying contaminants into humans. To assist the Northern River Basins Study (NRBS) Board in making recommendations about the safety of drinking water supplies, the Drinking Water component designed a five-step program of studies. The steps included: 1. synthesis of existing data on water use and water quality; 2. investigation of odour in water and tainting in fish; 3. review of health records for water borne diseases; 4. assessment of conventionally treated and non-conventional water; and 5. preparation of a synthesis report. This report deals with step four and provides a literature review of the current state of knowledge in the area of inorganic chemical removal from drinking water"--Study perspective.
