     microbial biofilms from surfaces in contact with water may play a beneficial role in drinking water treatment as biological filters. however, detrimental effects such as biofouling (i.e., biocorrosion and water quality deterioration) may also occur. in this study microbiological processes and factors influencing the activity of bacteria in biofilms were investigated by conventional cultivation methods. the presence of bacteria belonging to different ecophysiological groups was assessed during drinking water treatment, in biofilms developed on concrete, steel and sand surfaces. influences of the treatment process, type of immersed material and physico-chemical characteristics of raw/bulk water and biofilms upon the dynamics of bacterial communities were evaluated. results revealed intense microbial activity in biofilms occurring in the drinking water treatment plant of cluj. ammonification, iron reduction and manganese oxidation were found to be the predominant processes. multiple significant correlations were established between the evolution of biofilm bacteria and the physico-chemical parameters of raw/ bulk water. the type of immersed material proved to have no significant influence upon the evolution of microbial communities, but the treatment stage, suggesting that the processes applied restrict microbial growth not only in bulk fluid but in biofilms, too.
