Decision Support System for Reducing EDCs and PPCPs in Drinking Water

Abstract

The objective of this project was to develop an electronic decision support system (DSS) to guide water and wastewater utilities in determining the most cost effective measures for reducing consumer exposure to endocrine disrupting compounds, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products (EDCs/PPCPs) in drinking water. Published in 2018.
