Brief description of the project:

According to the field experiment with sediments there will be described transport of sediments in to the mathematical model. Thus there will be possibility to predict red water areas with free of charge models (ex. EPANET) and decreases turbidity cases in to the networks using flushing of distribution mains. To decreases microbiological quality of water do to turbidity reasons there can be used chlorination strategies in to the treatment plants. These actions can minimize complains of turbid water and decreases risk of illness cases related with drinking water.
