摘要：Research on the microbiological quality of rainwater collected
from roof surfaces indicates their significant contamination with
microorganisms, including potentially pathogenic ones. The aim of the
research was to attempt disinfection of rainwater with chemical methods
and to evaluate the effectiveness of this disinfection. The research was
carried out with the use of appropriate means in the case of
decontamination of large volumes of water, when it is important to
maintain their biological stability - chlorination and ozonation. After the
disinfector was administered for 4 weeks, bacterial microflora (stability)
was observed in stored water. The control was carried out by determining
the total amount of bacteria at 37°C and the total amount of bacteria at
22°C on the reference medium (agar A) and on the non-standard substrate
(R2A agar). The number of indicator bacteria was also determined: fecal
streptococci and Escherichia coli (on the chromogenic medium). Changes
in the amount of microorganisms after disinfection processes were also
monitored by flow cytometry. The research results clearly indicate better
chlorinating disinfection effects. It allows the removal of indicator
microorganisms in a relatively short time (1 hour), and the effect of the
disinfectant lasts up to about a half month.
