Progress of Researches on Contamination of Freshwater Algae in Natural Mineral Water for Drinking / 环境与健康杂志

ABSTRACT

The reports on the occurrences of contamination by algae in mineral water source and finished bottled water products, the found species, detection methods, spreading pathways of algae and its possible hazardous health effects were summarized in this paper. From the point of view of contamination control, some important key links were discussed. In accordance with the special characteristics of freshwater algae, the measures for control and the trend of some researches on algae contamination expounded by domestic and foreign scholars were introduced and analyzed combined with the key technological links, such as characteristics of mineral water source, water treatment, pour manufacture, package materials and management of bottled natural mineral water.
