2. Uncharted Waters : Non-target analysis of disinfection by-products in drinking water
Abstract : Disinfection by-products (DBPs) are potentially toxic compounds formed when drinking water is treated with disinfectants, such as chlorine or chloramine. A large proportion of the exposure to DBPs is still unknown and the health risks observed through epidemiological studies cannot be explained by DBPs known today. READ MORE

3. Heterogeneous TiO2 Photocatalysis : Fundamental Chemical Aspects and Effects of Solid Phase Alterations
Abstract : Heterogeneous photocatalysis on TiO2 is an emerging green technology for water disinfection. The rationale for this technology is based on in-situ generation of highly reactive transitory species for degradation of organic and inorganic pollutants as well as microorganisms. READ MORE

5. Tracking changes in dissolved natural organic matter composition : evaluating drinking water production using optical and molecular level tools
Abstract : During the last decades, the abundance of dissolved organic matter (DOM), a complex heterogeneous mixture of organic compounds, has increased in many surface waters in Northern Europe and North America. Surface waters are widely used as raw water sources for drinking water production. READ MORE
