摘要：The aim of the study is to assess the quality of water from
selected recreational fountains in Ciechocinek and Inowrocław health
resorts. All analyzed water fountains are characterized by seasonal changes
in their discharge. The exceedance of biochemical oxygen demand and
chemical oxygen demand values found in the water samples may indicate
water contamination with compounds of organic origin getting from the
external environment to the basin of the fountain or too little recirculation
of water. A significant improvement in water quality was noted in
fountains in which water exchange occurred due to, for example, its
failure. In addition, the water was characterized by a relatively high content
of general hardness and conductivity. Reported exceedances of water
quality parameters disqualify it for direct human consumption. It does not
meet the requirements for drinking water. It is recommended to introduce
supervision over the quality of water from fountains by the bodies of the
State Sanitary Inspection in the form of water monitoring in order to
eliminate from the water compounds that may have a negative impact on
human health. It is recommended to regularly use pre-filtration,
chlorination and sodium hypochlorite in water in fountains to eliminate
physical impurities.
