The inner walls of the drinking water distribution system (DWDS) are expected to be clean to ensure a safe quality of drinking water. Complex physical, chemical, and biological processes take place when water comes into contact with the pipe surface. This paper describes the impact of leaching different compounds from the water supply pipes into drinking water and subsequent risks. Among these compounds, there are heavy metals. It is necessary to prevent these metals from getting into the DWDS. Those compounds are susceptible to impacting the quality of the water delivered to the population either by leaching dangerous chemicals into water or by enhancing the development of microorganism growth on the pipe surface. The corrosion process of different pipe materials, scale formation mechanisms, and the impact of bacteria formed in corrosion layers are discussed. Water treatment processes and the pipe materials also affect the water composition. Pipe materials act differently in the flowing and stagnation conditions. Moreover, they age differently (e.g., metal-based pipes are subjected to corrosion while polymer-based pipes have a decreased mechanical resistance) and are susceptible to enhanced bacterial film formation. Water distribution pipes are a dynamic environment, therefore, the models that are used must consider the changes that occur over time. Mathematical modeling of the leaching process is complex and includes the description of corrosion development over time, correlated with a model for the biofilm formation and the disinfectants–corrosion products and disinfectants–biofilm interactions. The models used for these processes range from simple longitudinal dispersion models to Monte Carlo simulations and 3D modeling. This review helps to clarify what are the possible sources of compounds responsible for drinking water quality degradation. Additionally, it gives guidance on the measures that are needed to maintain stable and safe drinking water quality.

“…Previous studies have reported that individual PTEs have been less toxic than their mixtures (Chu & Chow, 2002;Moyson et al, 2019); however, toxicological effects from the interaction of multiple PTEs may depend on their speciation and concentration (Moyson et al, 2018). Vanadium can cause toxicity by altering Na + and Ca 2+ homeostasis, and/or inducing oxidative stress in invertebrates and fish (Meina et al, 2020). In other models, such as rats, V stimulates H 2 O 2 production, inhibits oxidative phosphorylation, causes enzymatic and respiratory process suppression, and can lead to lipid peroxidation.…”

“…The presence of V and Ni in the inorganic fraction activates the defense responses against oxidative stress in C. elegans. It has been reported that PTEs, as a V and Ni, induce the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and activate the production of SOD, which is one of the main enzymes of defense against superoxide radicals (Meina et al, 2020;Tang et al, 2020). In addition, high concentrations of PTEs may exceed the detoxification capacity of C. elegans, causing observable effects on growth, reproduction, physiological behavior, and neurological dysfunctions (Ijomone et al, 2020;Jiang et al, 2016;Kumar et al, 2015;Ngwa et al, 2017).…”

Urban dust is a reservoir of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) that can be incorporated into aquatic ecosystems where they bioaccumulate and biomagnify causing toxic effects. The aim of this work was to assess the PTEs’ concentrations and toxicity to Caenorhabditis elegans of inorganic extracts from urban dust of Barranquilla, the largest Colombian Caribbean city. Trace elements were analyzed by inductively couple plasma-mass spectrometry. PTEs concentration decreased in the order Sr > Cu > Ba > Mo > Se > Cr > V > Ni > As > Zn > Rb > Mn > Sb > Co > Sn > Cd > La > Ce >Tl ≈ Bi > Ag ≈ Pb. Inorganic extracts from urban dust affected physiological parameters in the nematode, such as survival, growth and locomotion. Lethality showed a positive relation with Sr and negative with V. Growth displayed a negative association with Mo. Expression of mtl-2, sod-4, and unc-25 genes was induced by PTEs. The results suggest that C. elegans is a sensitive organism capable of responding to exposure to urban dust extracts, being a suitable sensor for the implementation of warning systems related to risks to biota associated with air pollution.

“…Like other toxic metals, vanadium has the ability to induce the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), resulting in antioxidant enzyme inhibition and lipid peroxidation (Aureliano et al, 2002). This effect was reported for several fish species including O. mykiss (Gillio Meina et al, 2020), Halobatrachus didactylus (Aureliano et al, 2002;Soares et al, 2008), and Clarias batrachus (Bishayee and Chatterjee, 1994). Other effects on fishes were also described including inhibited growth, damage to the neurological system and to specific organs (kidney, liver, and heart), as well as changes in hematological, reproductive, and respiratory systems (Borges et al, 2003;Fazio et al, 2019).…”
