Potable Reuse Research Compilation: Synthesis of Findings

Published by the Water Environment & Reuse Foundation (WE&RF), this report summarizes and synthesizes key issues and findings related to potable reuse research. This compilation provides a clear understanding of the state of the science on direct potable reuse, and identifies unknowns that may require further research.

Topics addressed in the report include source control, treatment trains, surrogates and log reduction credits for pathogens, pathogen monitoring, constituents of emerging concern, critical control points to monitor DPR systems, operation and maintenance of DPR facilities, operator training and certification, and the resilience of DPR systems.

This study was originally funded in cooperation with WERF as project Reuse-15-01 and was managed by Julie Minton and Katie Henderson.
