This powerpoint presentation begins by presenting study objectives that include the following: develop distribution system intrusion
risk model and use to estimate risk of
infection; and,
if water is intruded through a leak
after a low-pressure event, viruses
and other pathogens may be
introduced, and transported to water
consumers. Experimental approach included: selecting test system;
determining which locations have
vulnerability to low pressure if power
failure occurs;
determining initial pathogen
concentrations at intrusion nodes;
identifying how pathogens introduced at
initial locations will impact entire
system; calculate total pathogen dose
delivered to model nodes; and, calculate infection risk. Includes 8 references, figures.
