Extension of the water quality monitoring system in the River Ruhr measuring and sampling station Hattingen and Essen

Objetivo

Detection of accidental water pollution (immediately not retrospectively); protection of drinking water supply; protection of aquatic biota; cause analysis of detrimental effects on aquatic biota including fish kills by illegal discharge of toxic waste waters; discovery of polluters; prevention of pollution by intensified surveillance

The surveillance networks of Ruhr River Association shall be extended and complemented by continous water quality monitoring by means of physical chemical sensors (for temperature, pH, electric conductivity, oxygen-, ammonia-, nitrate-concentrations, chlorophyll fluoresence for algal biomass) and biomonitoring with the zebra-mussel Dreissena polymorpha. The innovative approach is the triggering of automated sampling by signals from the chemical and/or biological sensors.
