    The strategies to keep microbiological contaminants out of drinking water include keeping microbes out of the water source, treating water to remove contaminants, and maintaining a safe water distribution system. Components of a water distribution system include primary disinfection to inactivate microorganisms in the water and secondary disinfection to maintain disinfectant residuals throughout the system. The most widely known method of water disinfection is chlorine, which involves adding chlorine gas or hypochlorite to water to kill microbes.
