Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The emergence of waterborne viruses with resistance to disinfection has been demonstrated in the laboratory and in the environment. Yet, the implications of such resistance for virus control remain obscure. In this study we investigate if viruses with resi ...
Safe water, sanitation, and hygiene provision and promotion are critical elements of emergency response to ensure human safety, health, and dignity. Disinfectants, such as chlorine, are widely used in emergency response to treat water for drinking. However ...
Infectious diseases caused by waterborne viruses contribute to the global disease burden. An effective barrier to prevent the discharge of waterborne viruses is a disinfection step, yet disinfection is not always efficient at inactivating viruses. This the ...
Disinfection processes such as chlorination, chloramination, and ozonation are a crucial measure to provide safe drinking water because they effectively inactivate pathogenic microorganisms. However, these processes can also lead to the formation of harmfu ...
Ozonation, which is widely used for drinking water disinfection, has recently been applied to mitigate potentially harmful effects of micropollutants (e.g., pharmaceuticals, personal care products, pesticides, etc.) present in municipal wastewater effluent ...
Epidemiological risk estimates point toward potential health risks posed by disinfection by-products ( DBPs) in chlorinated drinking water. Point-of-use filters can effectively remove regulated DBPs from tap water but the removal of unknown DBPs and toxici ...
This study addresses the bacterial inactivation mechanism by photo-Fenton process at near-neutral pH, focusing on iron-oxides and iron-citrate as photocatalysts for solar water disinfection and using E. coli as a bacteria model. Cell envelope damage during ...
In this study, we investigate if frequent exposure to disinfectants promotes the emergence of virus resistance to disinfectants. We found that repeated passages causes viruses gain increasing resistance toward ClO2. However, the role of ClO2 is not clear i ...
The photocatalytic activities of four different commercially available iron (hydr)oxides semiconductors, i.e. hematite (alpha-Fe2O3), goethite (alpha-FeOOH), wustite (FeO) and magnetite (Fe3O4), were evaluated for bacteria inactivation at neutral pH in the ...
Enrichment methods used in sample preparation for the bioanalytical assessment of disinfected drinking water result in the loss of volatile and hydrophilic disinfection byproducts (DBPs) and hence likely tend to underestimate biological effects. We develop ...
