Int J Environ Res Public Health
. 2017 Jun;
14(6).
PMID: 28608808
Although reclaimed water for potable applications has many potential benefits, it poses concerns for chemical and microbial risks to consumers. We present a quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) Monte Carlo...

Water Res
. 2017 Mar;
114:338-350.
PMID: 28279879
Intermittent drinking water supply is common in low- and middle-income countries throughout the world and can cause water quality to degrade in the distribution system. In this study, we characterized...

Environ Sci Technol
. 2016 Dec;
50(24):13184-13194.
PMID: 27993062
Nonpotable water reuse (NPR) is one option for conserving valuable freshwater resources. Decentralization can improve distribution system efficiency by locating treatment closer to the consumer; however, small treatment systems may...
