“…River water contains turbidity. Water from production wells generally does not contain turbidity [23]. At Haridwar, the river water is contaminated with total coliform (160-930,000/100 mL) and fecal coliform (160-24,000/100 mL).…”

“…Turbidity removal has been proven to be highly efficient using RBF (Dash et al, 2008(Dash et al, , 2010Ray et al, 2008;Saini et al, 2013;Schubert, 2001;Thakur and Ojha, 2010;Wang, 2003;Wang et al, 1996Wang et al, , 2001Weiss et al, 2005). Thakur and Ojha (2010) studied the variation in turbidity during the extraction of subsurface water for the supply of drinking water to Haridwar.…”

“…3.1 Hydraulic conductivity and clogging of the aquifer RBF systems worldwide have shown a decline in the longterm yield (Caldwell, 2006;Dash et al, 2010;Hubbs, 2006a;Hubbs et al, 2007;Mucha et al, 2006;Schmidt et al, 2003;Schubert, 2006a;Stuyfzand et al, 2006). The production yield of RBF depends on many factors, including the hydraulic conductivity and the degree of contact between the river and the phreatic aquifer (Caldwell, 2006).…”

“…The resulting soil-based (river bank) filtration (Singh et al 2010;Dash et al 2010) is, however, In Kumasi, Ghana, IWMI tested slow sand filters on farms to improve water quality for farmers using irrigation water with high levels of fecal contamination (Keraita et al 2008c). They were monitored for 5 weeks and assessed for the removal of helminths and fecal coliform bacteria.…”
