Water Supply Systems
WATER SOURCES
1. Groundwater – portion of the rainwater
which has percolated into the earth to form
underground deposits and called aquifer
(water-bearing soil formations).
Groundwater as a source of water supply
can be extracted through wells and springs.
SURFACE WATER SOURCES
2. Surface Water – is a mixture of
surface run-off and groundwater.
Surface sources include rivers, lakes,
streams, ponds and impounding
reservoirs.

producing contacts to form flocs.
62
SEDIMENTATION
• Sedimentation is the process of solid-
liquid separation using gravity settling to
remove suspended solids.
• Type I – settling out of discrete non-
flocculent particles in dilute suspension.
• Type II – settling out of flocculent particles
in dilute suspension.
63
FILTRATION
• Filtration processes are used primarily
to remove suspended particulate
material from water. Particulates
removed may be those in the water
source or those generated in treatment
processes.
• Particulates – clay, silt, microorganisms,
colloidal and precipitates of iron and
alum.
65
• Precipitation Method by Lime –
Soda Ash Process – use of quick
lime (calcium oxide), hydrated
lime (calcium hydroxide) and
soda ash (sodium carbonate).
• Ion-exchange Methods by Zeolite
Softeners – use of synthetic
zeolite chemicals
66
• Membrane Filtration Processes
• Reverse Osmosis – is a pressure driven
process that retains all ions and passes water.
• Electrodialysis – is a process in which ions are
transferred through membranes from a less
concentrated to a more concentrated solution
as a result of the passage of direct current.
• Ultrafiltration – is a pressure driven process for
fractionating and concentrating solutions
containing colloids and high-molecular weight
materials.

large settling basin so that the suspended solids may settle to
the bottom.
 By coagulation - or applying to the water certain chemicals
called coagulants that produce an insoluble gelatinous and
flocculent precipitate which absorbs and entraps the
suspended solids in the water and thus hastens their
sedimentation
 By filtration – or passing the water through a layer of sand or
other material that retains the suspended solids.
112

arising from human
and animal
activities that are
normally solid and
that are discarded
as useless or
unwanted
159
Four General Categories
• Municipal waste
• Industrial waste
• Hazardous waste
• Health care waste
<<<NEXT>>>
160
Municipal Solid Waste
• waste arising from domestic, commercial, and
institutional activities in urban areas. This
includes the following:
 Food waste
 Rubbish
 Ashes and residues
 Demolition and construction
 Treatment plant waste
<<<BACK>>>
161

• waste that pose
substantial danger
immediately or over a
period of time to human,
plant or animal life. It
exhibit the following:
• Toxicity
• Ignitability
• Corrosivity
• Reactivity
<<<BACK>>>
163
Health Care Waste
164
Healthcare waste
 Includes all the waste generated by
health care establishments, research
facilities and laboratories.
 Also includes the waste originating
from “minor” or “scattered” sources
such as that produced in the course
of health care undertaken in the
home (dialysis, insulin injections
etc.)
165
Health Impact of
Health Care Waste
Characteristics:
 Contains infectious agents
 Genotoxic
 Contains toxic or hazardous
chemicals or pharmaceuticals
 Radioactive
 Contains sharps
<<<BACK>>>
166
Types of Health Care Waste
 Infectious waste
 Pathological waste
 Sharps
 Pharmaceutical waste
 Genotoxic waste
 Chemical waste
 Waste with high content of heavy metals
 Pressurized containers
 Radioactive waste
167
Health Impact of
Health Care Waste
Persons at Risk
 All individuals exposed to hazardous
health care waste are potentially at risk,
including those within health care
establishments that generate hazardous
waste, and those outside these sources
who either handle such waste or are
exposed to it as a consequence of careless
management
 E.g. MDs, nurses, healthcare auxiliaries,
maintenance personnel, patients, visitors,
waste disposal workers, scavengers
168
Health Impact of
Health Care Waste
 Hazards from Infectious Waste and
Sharps
1. Through a puncture, abrasion, or
cut in the skin
2. Through the mucous membrane
3. By inhalation
4. By ingestion
169
Health Impact of
Health Care Waste
170
Health Impact of
Health Care Waste
 Hazards from Chemical and
Pharmaceutical Waste
- Intoxication – acute or chronic exposure,
skin absorption, inhalation or ingestion
- Injuries e.g. burns
- Examples – disinfectants, obsolete
pesticides, chemical/pharmaceutical
residues discharged into the sewerage
system
171
Health Impact of
Health Care Waste
 Hazards from Genotoxic Waste
- Exposure to genotoxic substances
may occur during preparation of or
treatment with particular
drugs/chemicals
- Example: antineoplastic drugs
- Carcinogenic, mutagenic, secondary
neoplasia
172
Health Impact of
Health Care Waste
 Hazards from Radioactive Waste
- The type of disease dependent on
type and extent of exposure
- Headache, dizziness and vomiting to
more serious problems
- Genotoxic
- Severe injuries e.g. destruction of
tissues which may lead to
amputation
173
Waste Management Plan for a
Health-care Establishment
 Location and organization of collection and
storage facilities
 Design Specifications of the bags, garbage
collection systems
 Required material and human resources
 Responsibilities of the different categories
of personnel of the hospital including the
attendants and ancillary staff
 Procedures and practices
 Training Program
174
Health Impact of
Health Care Waste
175
Treatment and Disposal Technologies
for Health Care Waste
 Incineration – a high temperature
dry oxidation process that reduces
organic and combustible waste to
inorganic, incombustible matter and
results in a very significant reduction
of waste volume and weight. This
process is chosen for wastes that can
not be recycled, reused or disposed
of in a landfill site.
176
Waste types not to be
incinerated
 Pressurized gas containers
 Large amounts of reactive chemicals
wastes
 Silver salts and photographic or
radiographic wastes
 Halogenated plastics e.g. PVC
 Waste with high mercury or cadmium
content e.g. thermometers, used batteries
 Sealed ampoules containing heavy metals
177
Characteristics of waste
suitable for incineration
 Low heating value
 Combustible matter – 60%
 Non-combustible solids – 5%
 Non-combustible fines – below 20%
 Moisture content – below 30%
178
179
Treatment and Disposal Technologies
for Health Care Waste
 Chemical Disinfection – chemicals
are added to waste to kill or
inactivate the pathogens resulting to
disinfection rather than sterilization.
This process is suitable for treating
liquid waste such blood, urine, stools
or hospital sewage. May also
disinfect microbiological cultures,
sharps etc.
180
Treatment and Disposal Technologies
for Health Care Waste
 Wet Thermal Treatment
based on exposure of shredded infectious
waste to high temperature, high pressure
steam and is similar to the autoclave
sterilization process. It inactivates most
types of microorganisms. It is required for
the waste to be shredded before
treatment, for sharps – milling or
crushing. It is not appropriate for
anatomical waste and animal carcasses
and will not sufficiently treat chemical and
pharmaceutical wastes.
181
Wet Thermal Treatment
 Disadvantages:
- the shredder is liable to mechanical
failure and breakdown
- the efficiency of disinfection is very
sensitive to the operational
conditions
182
Treatment and Disposal Technologies
for Health Care Waste
 Microwave Irradiation
most microorganisms are destroyed
by action of microwaves of a
frequency of 2450 MHz and a
wavelength of 12.24cm. The
infectious agents are destroyed by
heat conduction
183
Hospital Hygiene and
Infection Control
 Epidemiology of Nosocomial
Infections
- transition from contamination to
infection
- sources of infection
- routes of transmission
184
Hospital Hygiene and
Infection Control
 Prevention of Nosocomial Infections
- Principles:
a. Separate the infection source
from the rest of the hospital
b. Cut off any route of transmission
185
Hospital Hygiene and
Infection Control
 Prevention of Nosocomial Infections
- Isolation of the infected patients
and standard precautions
- Cleaning
- Sterilization
- Disinfection
- Hand Hygiene

disposal site
• areas with large quantities of SW
should be served first <<<BACK>>>
206
• this involves (1) transfer of waste from
smaller collection vehicle to larger
transport equipment (2) subsequent
transfer of waste to disposal site
• transfer takes place in a transfer station
• Transfer station is recommended if
disposal site is relatively far (>15km)
TRANSFER AND TRANSPORT

INSECT AND RODENT CONTROL
5 Basic Methods of Control
300
 Physical (mechanical)-use of mechanical
devices or physical forces
 use of traps; shooting with bullets, darts; catching;
clubbing
 Chemical-use of rodenticides, insecticides
and larvicides
 use of poisons which may be clasified into:
 Contact poison
 Stomach poison
 Fumigants
 Sterilants
301
 Biological-limiting factors that affect their growth and
reproduction such as food, space for their habitat.
 use of living rat predator and disease agent
 Environmental-cleanliness of the premises, proper
building construction and maintenance
 Elimination of food by proper garbage disposal and food
storage
 Elimination of breeding places (harborage) by proper refuse
storage, satisfactory housekeeping and proper design and
construction of buildings
 Rat-proofing of buildings – special construction to prevent
rats from going under, through and over to the building.
 Health education and Information

CONTROL OF FLIES
 Musca Domestica - house fly
 Carriers of many diseases:
dysentery, cholera, typhoid,
diarrhea, conjunctivitis
 Fannia scaleris – latrine fly
 Breed in excreta, in fermenting
and decaying garbage
 Carry the same diseases as the
house fly
304
Habits and Characteristics
 Housefly does not bite; stable fly is a vicious biter
 Housefly is about ¼ inch long, mouse gray or buff in
color
 Male is smaller than female
 The body, including the legs is covered with hairs
 The sticky hairs of the legs hold germs
 It dissolves sugar by depositing saliva on it.
 It rests on a quiet spot to clean head and proboscis,
to digest and to vomit and suck up its half digested
food.
305
Life Cycle of House Flies
eggs
pupa
larvae
adult
<<<NEXT>>>
306
Egg
 Oval, white bright bodies
 1 mm length
 No. of eggs (1 single fly): 1000-3000 in clusters of
100 to 150 at a time
 Ave. batches laid in a lifetime: 2-4 batches; Max: 20
batches
 Hatch out in 8 hours at 29-32°C
 Factors affecting # of eggs produced:
 Available food supply
 Climatic conditions
 Natural enemies
<<<BACK>>>
307
Larvae
 Grayish or creamy white, segmented (like a worm),
smooth cylindrical
 ½ inch long
 Move by alternately contracting and expanding their
bodies (legless)
 Larvae stage: 4-7 days
 Highly motile, burrow into a fermenting mass, feed
voraciously, grow rapidly
 Optimum temp for growth: 32°C; killed at 64°C
 End of larval stage: become restless, migrate to
cooler dryer surroundings (e.g. loose soil, under
surfaces of stones and boards)
<<<BACK>>>
308
 Mahogany brown, barrel shaped,
developed from larval coating
 6 mm long
 Immobile for 3-6 days
Pupa
<<<BACK>>>
309
 Emerging from puparium, newborn adult fly crawls tentatively
until its wings have expanded fully and hardened.
 Flights: max- 500 to 1000 meters; min- 200 to 300 meters; when
carried by wind – up to 21 km
 Same size as when it emerges from pupa
 Lays eggs from 2- 20 days after emergence
 Eggs are deposited by female fly into a dung or other material
where heat generated by fermentation facilitates hatching and
where moisture prevents drying
 Eggs are deposited within 8 hours of fresh manure only
 Length of life: 1 month
Adult fly
<<<BACK>>>
310
Breeding Places
 Human and Animal Excreta
 Garbage
 Rubbish dumps containing organic
wastes
 Ground where liquid wastes are spilled
311
Transmission of Disease
 Fly transmits disease through the legs
and the digestive system
 It voids its digestive tract while feeding
which contaminates food
 Produces 15-30 vomit spots and fecal
deposits in 24 hours
312
Control Measures:
 Basis of control measures: habits and
characteristics of housefly
 Preferred breeding material: horse manure
 Other breeding materials: animal manure, human
excreta, fermenting vegetable wastes
 Larvae temperature susceptibility: 43 to 46 °C
 Mature larvae migrate from breeding material prior
to pupation
 Pupa develop at or beyond the borders of mass of
breeding material
313
Control Measures:
 Larvae or adult insect crawl through loose
manure or earth
 Adult flies are attracted to food by odor
 Flies soar toward light
 Flies rest on vertical surface or hanging
object
314
Methods of disposal of manure
1. Disposal by contract
2. Disposal of manure as fertilizer
3. Disposal by drying
4. Disposal by composting
5. Disposal by incineration
315
Disposal by contract
 Collection and transport contracted to
sanitation group with the following rules:
 Manure to be collected early in the morning
 All manure should be completely carried
away
 Vehicles should not allow spillage
316
Disposal of manure as fertilizer
 Thinly spread on ground to dry quickly
or flowed under if manure is wet
317
Disposal by drying
 Only in dry climates; if areas become wet, it
turns into breeding places.
 Requirements:
 Grounds tamped and cleared of vegetation
 Manure is spread in layer not over 1 to 2 inches
thick
 Drying time: 4 to 7 days
 Area required: 1.1 sq m per animal
318
Disposal by composting
 Manure is closely packed in a heap
 Heat generated in composting will kill
larvae
319
Disposal by incineration
 Manure may be staked in long
windrows, sprayed with oil and burned
 If manure is dried it can be burned
without oil
320
Chemicals as larvicides
 If manure will not be used as fertilizer:
 Crude oil
 Waste oil
 Kerosene
 2% solution of cresol
Note: DDT is not effective against larvae
321
Chemicals as larvicides
 If manure will be used as fertilizer
 Borax solution
 Hellebore
 Iron sulfate
322
Chemicals as larvicides
 In dirty garbage can, privies or other
breeding areas:
 Aldrin
 Dieldrin
 Organophosphate compounds
323
Methods of control of adult flies
 Residual treatment
 Outdoor space sprays
 Fly trapping
 Fly paper and fly wire
 Swatting
 Screening
 Note: these are temporary measures and
should not be as substitute for excreta,
garbage and waste control
324
Residual treatment
 Chemicals are applied on surfaces
(walls, leaves, etc)
 Housefly readily develops resistance to
organochloride or organophosphorus
 Less responsive to carbamate an
pyrethrum type materials
325
Outdoor space sprays
 Chemicals used for space treatments
are more effetive than for residual/
larvicidal applications
 Chemicals used: malathion, ronnel,
fenthion, dichlorvos
 Resmethrin emulsion is highly effective
in reducing fly populations
326
Fly trapping
 Two parts of fly traps
 Bait chamber – lower
darker part of traps into
which flies are enticed by
the odor of bait
 Trap chamber – upper
and lighter part and is
connected with the bait
chamber by an aperture
through which the flies
crawl toward the light
after having fed on the
bait
 Location of fly traps
 Near breeding places:
manure piles, latrines,
garbage cans and dumps
 Near kitchens, around
entrances to buildings,
food preparing/ serving
areas
 Baits – need not be a
source of nuisance
 Fermented baits contain
alcohol
 Mixture of cereals,
molasses yeast and
water
327
Fly paper and fly wire
 Flies may be caught on wires or strips of
paper coated with a sticky preparation
 Fly wire:
 Wire fence or wires made into pieces 450 – 900
mm long and bent into a hooklet at one end;
several wires may be twisted together
 Fly paper:
 Prepared by applying a thin coat of hot glue in a
pan to strips of paper 450- 900 mm long and 25 to
50 mm wide
328
Swatting
 An accessory measure by can give
good results if used especially before
meal is served
329
Screening
 Does not reduce flies but is the most
important measure in preventing flies
from gaining access to food
 Use wire mesh of 16 wires to an inch
to exclude flies; 18 mesh wire to
exclude mosquitoes

AIR POLLUTION
What is air pollution?
It is the presence of one or more air
contaminants in sufficient quantities, of
such characteristics, and of such
duration as to threaten human, plant or
animal life or to property, or which
reasonably interferes with the comfortable
enjoyment of life or property.
Why is air pollution a major
environmental and occupational
health problem ?
 We breathe approximately 6 liters of
air every minute
 8,640 liters of air per day
 The total surface area of the air sacs
of our lungs is as big as a tennis court
Major Sources of Air Pollution
Emissions from vehicles Fuel combustion from coal fired power plants
Industrial processes Burning of solid wastes
Effects Of Air Pollution
1. Limited Visibility
Noon Morning
Effects Of Air Pollution
2. Economic damage to property
Effects of Air Pollution
3. Annoyance to human senses
Effects of Air Pollution
4. Damage to health
 Eye irritation – specific effect of photochemical
oxidants, aldehydes and particulate matter
 Acute respiratory infection – increased risk
among young children
 Acute bronchitis – direct irritating effects of
SO2, soot and petrochemical pollution
 Chronic bronchitis – aggravation of cough or
sputum
 Asthma – aggravation from respiratory irritation
 Decreased lung functions
 Reduced exercise performance
 Exacerbation of symptoms with chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
 Headache – carbon monoxide causing
more than 10% carboxyhaemoglobin
 Lead toxicity – add to body burden
 Deaths – fine particulate increasing
mortality in heart and lung disease
Effects of Air Pollution
Specific Health Effects of Common
Air Pollutants
1. Particulates (PM10 and PM2.5)
2. Sulfur dioxide
3. Oxides of nitrogen
4. Ozone
5. Carbon monoxide
6. Volatile organic compounds
7. Trace metals
1. PARTICULATES
 Associated with elevated risk of mortality
and morbidity (cough & bronchitis)
 Every 10 ug/m3 increase of PM10 is
estimated to cause 1% increase in CVD
death (WHO, 1997)
 Can cause pneumoconiosis in
occupational setting
 DENR Standard: TSP=250 ug/m3
PM10=150 ug/m3
2. SULFUR DIOXIDE
 Water-soluble irritant gas affecting upper
respiratory tract
 Cause bronco-constriction and asthma
attacks
 Can attach to particulates and tend to
deposit deeply in the lungs
 Cause of “acid rain”
 DENR standard: 180 ug/m3 (24-hr ave)
3. OXIDES OF NITROGEN
 Increase lower respiratory tract infections
 Increase incidence asthma
 Impair host defenses in the respiratory tract
 Reduce capacity of lungs to clear particles
and bacteria
 DENR standard = 150 ug/m3 (24 hr ave.)
4. OZONE
 Highly reactive compound that irritates
airways in the lungs
 Interferes with host defense mechanisms
 Secondary pollutant
 Trigger asthma attacks
 Can cause headache and fatigue
 Generate lower and upper respiratory
symptoms
 WHO guideline: 100 ug/m3 (8 hr exposure)
5. CARBON MONOXIDE
 Odorless and colorless gas
 Slightly heavier than air
 Has 200-300x more affinity to
hemoglobin than oxygen
 Normal amount of CO in blood is 1%
 DENR standard: 10mg/m3 (8 hr ave)
6. VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS
 About 261 VOCs have been detected in
ambient air
 Can cause irritation of the respiratory tract
 Can trigger asthma attack
 Can cause headache
 May have toxic and neurological effects
7. TRACE METALS
 E.g., Pb, Cd, Hg
 May affect nervous and respiratory system
 May affect liver and skin
 Pb can cause nerve damage, learning
disabilities and neurobehavioral problems in
children
 Every 10ug/dL increase in blood Pb levels
is associated with 1-5 point decrement in IQ
of exposed children

RULE OF 1000
“…states that a pollutant released
indoors is 1000 times more likely to
reach peoples lungs than a pollutant
released outdoors.”
World Health Organization, 1997
 In urban areas most people spend more
than 70% of their time indoors at work,
at home, or at school.
Effects of Air Pollution
5. Changes in the ecology of the
natural environment
a. Acid Rain
b. Greenhouse effect / El Niño
phenomena
c. Depletion of Ozone Layer
Control of Air Pollution
