Analysis of physico-chemical characteristics of drinking water, biofilm formation and occurrence of antibiotic resistant bacteria
(North-West University, 2014)The main aim of the study was to analyse the impact of physico-chemical parameters on drinking water quality, biofilm formation and antibiotic resistant bacteria in the drinking water distribution system in Mafikeng, North ... -
Assessment of water quality and associated impacts of the sewage discharges into the Mooi River Catchment
(North-West University (South Africa)North-West University, 2020)Population growth in developing cities is putting pressure on the wastewater treatment plants. The improper treated sewage entering the aquatic environment deteriorates the water quality of the receiving water resource. ... -
Incidence and characteristics of antibiotic resistant bacteria in raw and drinking water from Western Cape water production facilities
(North-West University (South Africa). Potchefstroom Campus, 2019)South Africa is one of the driest countries in the world. There are some parts in the country which are classified as water stressed region like Western Cape Province. This province had been reliant on surface and groundwater ... -
Mapping the dispersion of inorganic contaminants in surface water in the vicinity of Potchefstroom
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2017)South Africa is a country with fewer water resources, as large parts of the country are semi-arid, and the scarcity of water is exacerbated by the pollution of surface water, largely by anthropogenic sources, especially ... -
Molecular profiling of microbial population dynamics in environmental water
(North-West University, 2015)Increasing socio-economic growth and development of South Africa’s freshwater systems require continuous augmentation of water sources to meet the growing water requirements of communities and industries. Anthropogenic ... -
A study of the macroinvertebrate biodiversity and selected physico-chemical parameters of the Marico River
(North-West University (South Africa), Potchefstroom Campus, 2016)The rapid growth in world population, coupled with mega droughts over the past few decades, is progressively responsible for a global decline in water quantity and quality. In South Africa alone, nearly 71% of the main ...
