Abstract

SYNOPSISThe Albert Reservoir of the Yorkshire Water Authority was built in the 1850s as the final raw water storage in the chain of impounding and storage reservoirs which feed Halifax, Brighouse, and Elland in West Yorkshire (Fig. 1).This paper describes the problems encountered with increasing raw water colour since the mid1970s, the action taken to pretreat the water at the Albert reservoir prior to pressure filtration at the Thrum Hall Water Treatment Works (WTW), and the resulting problems with the deposited alum sludge in Albert reservoir.
