Hi I am interested in having the details of the trends as well as the changes and accompaniments in the expansion of protected water supply systems by CPHEEO?

The Central Public Health and Environmental Engineering Organization (CPHEEO) is Technical Wing of the Ministry of Urban Development, Government of India, and manages the matters identified with Urban Water Supply and Sanitation Including Solid Waste Management in the Country.

The CPHEEO was constituted under the past Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS) in 1953 according to the suggestions of the Environmental Hygiene Committee to manage Water Supply and Sanitation in the Country.

A manual has been created by the Central Public Health and Environmental Engineering Organization (CPHEEO), an office under the Ministry of Urban Development (MoUD) and serves as a standard aide in general wellbeing building by giving a code of everyday practice for general wellbeing designers to take after.

The manual goes for unification of these practices and endeavors at teaching a reason to the arrangement and administrative choices, aside from offering guidence to general wellbeing engineers in accomplishing the objective of giving safe water to all groups financially and quickly.

The manual has been revised from time to time as well as has taken into account the recent technical advances and trends in the expansion of protected water supply systems, some of the major changes and accompaniments as highlighted in the following areas:
• Groundwater extraction through radial wells
• Measurement of flow
• Minimum requirements for domestic, non-domestic, institutional, fire fighting and industrial needs
• Minimum residual pressure and quality standards including virological aspects
• Concept of unit operations
• Chemical handling and feeding
• Recent concepts of coagulation and flocculation
• Advances in filtration
• Operation and maintanance problems in various unit operations involved in water supply, from source development to the actual supply
• Pumping stations and equipment
• Hydraulic network analysis, direct design of networks and computer programming
• Preventive maintenance including detection and prevention of wastage
• Protection against pollution and freezing
• Corrosion and its prevention
• Water hammer problems
• House service connections
• Optimal designs of water treatment systems
• Instrumentation and controls in water treatment plants
• Financing and management
• Legal aspects
• Laboratory tests and proceedures with special reference to the classification of the water works laboratories
