Abstract
In terms of public health, it is very important to ensure a safe drinking water from pathogenic microorganisms that cause water-borne disease. Cryptosporidium in the country for the treatment of drinking water treatment regulations standards are being conducted. However, the existing pathogenic protozoa such as cryptosporidium and process operating conditions, etc., for the removal of the need for additional reset. So it is required to install alternative disinfection treatment process for controlling pathogenic protozoan such as cryptosporidium. In this study it was investigated to find cryptosporidium distribution and target removal rate using risk management method. Thoroughout this study it was not reported of any outbreak of waterborne disease case by cryptosporidium. But it is still necessary to investigate a possibility of infection by it. Also it was concluded that target removal rate of cryptosporidium in water treatment plant was required 2 to 4 log at least.
