Abstract

The Tai Hu (Tai Lake) is used as a raw water reservoir for approximately ten million inhabitants predominantly in Jiangsu province, China. Algal/cyanobacterial blooms occur frequently in the eutrophic shallow lake and present a challenge for drinking water treatment. Furthermore, occasionally taste and odor (T&O) problems have been reported in drinking water. Due to the impacts of wastewater and surface water runoff, pesticides and emerging pollutants such as pharmaceutical compounds must be considered as well.
