[Ability to remove pesticides in the production of dialysis water (1)].
In many cases it can be demonstrated that the amount of plant protective and plant treatment substances (pesticides) in drinking water exceeds the permitted levels of the drinking water ordinance which will come into effect on October 1st, 1989. Since some of these components are of toxicological relevance, an investigation was done on how far pesticides are removed during conventional purification of dialysis water, and especially during reverse osmosis. The retention rates of a reverse osmosis plant for 14 different pesticides applied in different concentrations and compositions were determined. Almost all of the substances examined were retained with an effectiveness of 92-98%. The elimination efficiency did not depend on the initial concentration of the pesticides. After an initial phase of 50 h duration, the concentration in the treated water reached a constant value which no longer changed even after more than 700 h. In part 1 of this contribution at first the fundamentals of dyalisis water purification are reviewed and a selection of the pesticides to be investigated is carried out. In addition experimental set up and procedure are described.
