Additional information
This paper presents a fusion of engineering and microbiology applied to a live water distribution system. The research provides important first field validation of concepts previously only suggested from heavily idealised bench top laboratory experimentation. This represents a step change in interdisciplinary research, with practicable value for understanding and managing potable water quality in distribution systems, such as the impacts of stagnation and daily peaks in flow on attached and mobile microbial loads.
