Organic contaminants removal for potable reuse

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5115453
Denver's potable-water-reuse demonstration plant was designed to explore the issues that surround the conversion of secondary municipal wastewater effluent into potable water. This unconventional raw water supply may provide a source that could be economically competitive with the development of future raw water sources. Technical issues to be addressed include product quality and consumer safety, treatment cost evaluations, and regulatory agency endorsement; non-technical issues involve public education and acceptance.
