Water supply & treatment

Immunocompromised persons are more vulnerable than the general population to contaminants in drinking water and include persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, cancer survivors, transplant recipients, individuals with HIV/AIDS or other immune disorders, some elderly, infants, and pregnant mothers. Safe Drinking Water for the Immunocompromised provides information about safe drinking water choices for the immunocompromised community, pregnant mothers, and the medical professionals from whom they seek advice. The book serves as a primer on drinking water regulations, water chemistry, as well as the terminology used to describe water contaminants, and includes a glossary that explains the terms and concepts in a straightforward manner.

• Offers a science-based rationale for the acceptable level of a contaminant and sources of drinking water that meet or exceed these levels.

• Presents and explains numerous contaminants of concern found in water.

• Explains the different types of purification for bottled water, including reverse osmosis, distillation, and deionization.
