| Summary: | Nematodes are biological creatures with different kinds of species. According to the sources, the main reason for their low removal efficiency against disinfection, is their high rotational movements. Sand filters are the best place for their growth and reproduction. Therefor the best way to increase the removal efficiency of nematodes, is to inactivate them before their entrance into the sand filters and appropriate washing. In Pardis water treatment plant by increasing the nematodes after passing through a critical duration and increasing the turbidity of entrance water up to 300 NTU, caused from Jajoroud flooding, some actions were taken place such as frequent back-washing of filters, Chlorine shock, washing by perchlorine in different concentrations from 35-200 ppm. For this research, samples were taken from different indicator points of plant during 9 days. Then biological and physical chemistry analysis were taken place in order to detect the presence or absence of zooplanktons, specially nematodes in the treated water, and investigating the effect of flooding on physical and chemical quality of the water. After taking the above-mentioned actions and resampling during 4 days, from indicator points, the results showed that there were not any nematodes in the treated water and also the removal efficiency of the filters was raised up to 99% which was more than the literatures. These works have been done in order to remove the nematodes or prevent them from entering to the reproductive phase. The experimental analysis have been discussed in this research.
