Unregulated Organic Chemicals in Biosolids: Prioritization, Fate and Risk Evaluation for Land Applications

The overall goal of this research is to address key data gaps in our understanding of the occurrence and fate of unregulated organic chemicals (UOCs) in biosolids when land is applied and identify which UOCs in biosolids-amended soils may pose a high risk to human and ecosystem health. To achieve this goal, we propose a combination of field, laboratory, and modeling activities. 

WEF and WRF will have a dedicated virtual space for ongoing dialogue and stakeholder engagement, pre-recorded presentations of research progress, state of the current knowledge, and key findings. All final products from the project will be posted and publicly accessible on a dedicated web page through the WRF website, with links to journal articles, presentations, workshop materials, news items, etc., from the project.
