    Testing of the Old Danube Lake indicated that there were significant concentrations of nanoparticles from cosmetics in the water. Conservative estimates calculate that there were approximately 27.2 micrograms/L of TiO 2 , if TiO 2 was distributed throughout the entire 3.5*10^6 M^3 volume of the lake.

    For better water purification or treatment processes nanotechnology is preferred. Many different types of nanomaterials or nanoparticles are used in water treatment processes. Nanotechnology is useful in regards to remediation, desalination, filtration, purification and water treatment.

  5. Organisms involved in water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organisms_involved_in...

    Most organisms involved in water purification originate from the waste, wastewater or water stream itself or arrive as resting spore of some form from the atmosphere. In a very few cases, mostly associated with constructed wetlands , specific organisms are planted to maximise the efficiency of the process.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteriological_water_analysis

    Bacteriological water analysis is a method of analysing water to estimate the numbers of bacteria present and, if needed, to find out what sort of bacteria they are. It represents one aspect of water quality. It is a microbiological analytical procedure which uses samples of water and from these samples determines the concentration of bacteria ...
