Join us for our next webinar:
"Emerging Contaminant Removal and Microbial Growth in Membrane Filtration and Activated Carbon POU Systems"
Thursday, Oct. 6
1 p.m. Eastern/12 p.m. Central
Free!
Through a WQRF-funded grant, Dr. George Zhou evaluated the removal of three PFAS chemicals (PFOS, PFBS, PFHxS), manganese, uranium and Legionella by point-of-use (POU) devices. Three unique POU reverse osmosis membranes and three unique activated carbon filters were tested in this study. Join us for a discussion on how the technologies performed and check out the full study at wqrf.org/completed-studies.
