Data demonstrate that coliform regrowth occurred in the New Jersey American Water Company -- Monmouth District Distribution System. Biological treatment to remove growth-supporting substances is the solution to regrowth problems. This article examines the application of biological treatment strategies to current problems of the water industry. The studies focused on the production of biologically stable water, increased disinfectant stability, and reduced formation of disinfection by-products. Results show that biological processes can meet the practical as well as the regulatory requirements of the industry. Granular activated carbon, anthracite, sand, and garnet filter media are examined. Includes 45 references, tables, figures.
