Pepper mild mottle virus (PMMoV) was recently found to be the most abundant RNA virus in human feces, and is a plant virus belonging to the genus Tobamovirus in the family Virgoviridae. When in human feces, it is of dietary origin from peppers and their pr ...
N-nitrosamines are known as carcinogenic compounds and arouse today more and more attention as micropollutants and disinfection by-products. Indeed, they were newly found in several drinking waters, wastewaters and greywaters. It was proven that they can f ...
Ozonation is a water treatment process for disinfection and/or micropollutant abatement. However, ozonation of bromide-containing water leads to bromate (BrO3-) formation, a potential human carcinogen. A solution for mitigating BrO3- formation during abate ...
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are utilized due to their ability to treat emerging contaminants with the fast reacting and non-selective hydroxyl radical (center dot OH). Organophosphorous insecticides are common drinking water contaminants, with 12 d ...
Municipal water/wastewater agencies play an essential role in community well-being. Traditionally, municipal water/wastewater agencies have followed a linear (“take, make, dispose“) mode of thinking based on resource extraction. Often, the model follows th ...
We introduce a new representation of coupled solute and water age dynamics at the catchment scale, which shows how the contributions of young runoff waters can be directly referenced to observed water quality patterns. The methodology stems from recent tre ...
Background Cholera prevention and control interventions targeted to neighbors of cholera cases (case-area targeted interventions [CATIs]), including improved water, sanitation, and hygiene, oral cholera vaccine (OCV), and prophylactic antibiotics, may be a ...
Direct potable reuse (DPR) is gaining interest in water-scarce and water-conscious regions of the world as a technology capable of treating domestic wastewater to potable water standards. Because wastewater is the source water of such treatment schemes, th ...
Remote sensing helps foster our understanding of inland water processes allowing a synoptic view of water quality parameters. In the context of global monitoring of inland waters, we demonstrate the benefit of combining in-situ water analysis, hydrodynamic ...
The present invention relates to a thermal water purification system (10) for producing a distillate liquid from a raw liquid (LP, LB) comprising: - a plurality of distilling units (1 a-1h) which are consecutively flowed through by the raw feed liquid (LP, ...
