옥상물탱크 경유에 따른 수돗물 수질 변화 및 직결급수방식 도입에 의한 수질개선 효과 연구 = Water Quality Alteration during Passing through Small Water Tank and Improvement of Tap Water Quality by Direct Connection Service

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In order to compare the effect of water quality on two service systems, tank and direct connection service, we selected randomly 30 rooftop tanks installed in the buildings with five or fewer floors, and collected water samples from each tank as well as tap water by direct service. At the same time each tank was investigated on their cleanliness and sanitary control. 30 water samples from direct service met Korean Drinking water quality standard. But 5 tank water samples(17%) were not able to meet Coliform or Total Colony Counts standard and free chlorine of 12 tank water samples(40%) were less than 0.2mg/L. Also Fe, Turbidity, TOC, Total Algae in tank water were higher than tap water on direct service. We concluded that thorough health control of water tank is necessary and conversion into direct connection service results in improving tap water quality importantly.
