  • Title: [Effect of a water-pipe network on the sensory quality of drinking water].
    Author: Gatarska A, Smoczyński S, Wypyska M.
    Journal: Rocz Panstw Zakl Hig; 2010; 61(3):253-7. PubMed ID: 21365860.
    Abstract:
    Object of studies was aimed at determining the effect of a water-pipe system on the sensory quality of drinking water originating from various intakes. The aim was to be achieved through analyses of the sensory quality (odor and flavor) of drinking water originating from various reception points within the water-pipe system. Based on the analyses carried out in the research, it may be stated that, transport of water through the water-pipe system in Olsztyn in the winter season does not affect deterioration of odor or flavor of water supplied to consumers. Besides worse sensory quality of drinking water at consumers' reception points may be determined by its worse quality immediately after treatment. As a result of water transport through a water-pipe network, it is possible to reduce the intensity of some odor and flavor attributes to an undetectable level.
