Location

Description

Arrowe Park Hospital derives its portable water supply from a bore hole located within the Hospital Boundary and is distributed around the Hospital for human consumption. It is therefore essential to maintain the potable quality of the water for the safety for all who occupy the building by performing periodic chemical and microbiological analysis in accordance with the Private Water Supply Regulations. Recent analysis has identified that natural arsenic levels within the bore hole water are close to exceeding the World Health Organisation drinking water standard of 10 micrograms per litre. It is therefore necessary to replace the exhausted Bayoxide E33 Media with new. The current plant has a simple pump and treat adsorption system which contaminated water passes through a robust granular ferric oxide media, Bayoxide E33, developed exclusively for Severn Trent and Pollet Water Group by Bayer AG. As the water passes through the media, the arsenic is adsorbed and removed to a level below the European Community and World Health Organisation drinking water standard of 10 micrograms per litre.
