Abstract:Long-distance water transfer projects are important for water allocation. To enhance our understanding of biofilm growth and changes in water quality during raw water transfer, raw water through long-distance non-full culvert at flow rates of 1.4−2.0 m/s was studied.The results revealed that: (1) the biofilm total cell number (TCC) and heterotrophic plate count (HPC) were the highest at a flow rate of 1.5 m/s, which were 3.7E + 04 cells /cm2 and 1.1E + 03 CFU/cm2, respectively; (2) proteobacteria had the highe… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
