Abstract/Contents

Abstract: Through broad monitoring of full-scale and pilot conventional and advanced wastewater treatment systems, our goal is to assess whether low molecular weight compounds, including odorous compounds, solvents, and aldehydes, present a potential barrier to the implementation of direct potable reuse (DPR). While odorous compounds do not pose a health risk, their presence can compromise aesthetics and lead to rejection of the water source. Results indicate that target odorous compounds are present in wastewater effluent at concentrations up to 100 times their odor thresholds, but are reduced to acceptable levels in advanced treatment systems. Other low molecular weight compounds, including solvents 1,4-dioxane and acetone, are also reduced to acceptable levels in advanced treatment. Current and future efforts are focused on characterizing low molecular weight aldehydes.
