The photo-disinfection of water from two different wells (W1, pH: 4.6–5.1 ± 0.02) and (W2 pH: 5.6–5.7 ± 0.02) was carried out during the rainy season at Ouagadougou–Burkina Faso, West Africa. The weather variation during the rainy season significantly affe ...
The inactivation of total coliforms/E. coli (10(4) CFU/mL) and Salmonella spp. (10(5) CFU/mL) in well water naturally containing dissolved (Fe2+/3+) and solid iron forms (e.g. iron oxides) was carried out by photo Fenton treatment (Fe-2+,Fe-3+/H2O2/hv). In ...
The photo-disinfection of natural alkaline surface water (pH 8.6 +/- 0.3) for drinking purposes was carried out under solar radiation treatments. The enteric bacteria studied were the wild total coliforms/Escherichia coli (10(4) CFU/ml) and Salmonella spp. ...
Iron photo-assisted inactivation of wild enteric bacteria (total coliforms/E. coil and Salmonella spp.) was carried out in water from the Sahelian wells having different pH (W1:4.9 and W2: 6.3) and a natural iron content of 0.07 mg/L We evaluate the effici ...
