As an emerging contaminant, the presence of microplastics is widespread in the environment. However, current research regarding the removal of microplastics by drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) remains insufficient. This study aims to investigate m...

The lack of biochemical stability in drinking water increases the secondary contamination risk in water supply systems and hence represents a sanitary threat to consumers. The work presented here assesses the likelihood of such risk. The assessment is ba...

Granulated active carbon (GAC) is commonly used as a chemical barrier for the removal of organic micropollutants (OMPs) in drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs). However, little is known about the impact of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and its long-t...
