Abstract

This report will treat the use of models to predict discoloured water events. Discoloured water events happen when sediment in drinking water pipes is resuspended. This can lead to (brown coloured) sediment coming from the consumer's tap. As this is not desirable, models have been developed to predict these occurrences.
