Abstract

Typical Typical characteristics of drinking water in Finland and other Nord characteristics of drinking water in Finland and other Nordic countries (Sweden, ic countries (Sweden Norway) include high TOC (2 mg/l) P Norway) include high TOC (2 mg/l), P-limitation on microbial growth low alkalinity (0 9 mmol/l) limitation on microbial growth, low alkalinity (0.9 mmol/l) and hardness (0 6 mmol) and hardness (0.6 mmol).

In European Union, a mandatory acceptance scheme (EAS) is under preparation to ensure that pipe materials in contact with drinking water are safe to use.

The aim of this The aim of this study was to characterize interactions of commonly commonly used pipe used pipe
materials with typical drinking water quality in Finland wi materials with typical drinking water quality in Finland with a multi th a multi-methodological methodological approach.
