Investigation of Treatment Performance: Particle Removal and D/DBP Kinetics

SCCRWA, 1/1/1996-12/31/1996

PIs: Tobiason, Reckhow & Edzwald
Students: John McClellan

This work was done cooperatively between UMass and the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority during the year 1996. It represents a continuation of work from the 1995 project, and it includes special focus on empirical models of for DBPs.
