My biggest concern is one of confidence about a filtration mediums
ability to effectively and predictably screen bacteria at that scale.
Conventional commercially available systems seem too small so I am
interested in the potential of site construction of large sand
filtration beds (similar to sand filtration for septic disposal
systems).
Is anyone aware of what current available research there is to support
the design and testing of such a system - meaning specifications as to
its size and design with some predictability of results.
Any help or references would be greatly appreciated as I feel a bit
stuck on this one.
thank,
John Salmen
