    Abstract Potable water reuse technologies are used to treat wastewater to drinking water quality to help sustain a community's water resources. California has long led the adoption of potable water reuse technologies in the United States and more states are exploring these technologies as water resources decline. Reuse technologies also need to achieve adequate reductions in microbial and chemical contaminant risks to meet public health goals and secure public acceptance. In vitro bioassays are a useful tool for screening if reuse treatment processes adequately reduce toxicity associated with a range of chemical classes that are contaminants of concern. In this study, we used an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and an estrogen receptor luciferase bioassay to detect the presence of dioxin-like and estrogenic compounds across a 3800 m

    Abstract Manual flushing of building plumbing is commonly used to address water quality issues that arise from water stagnation. Autonomous flushing informed by sensors has the potential to aid in the management of building plumbing, but a number of knowledge gaps hinder its application. This study evaluates autonomous flushing of building plumbing with online sensor and actuator nodes deployed under kitchen sinks in five residential houses. Online oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and temperature data were collected for nine weeks during the winter and summer in houses with both free chlorine and chloramine. ORP levels in houses with free chlorine residuals decreased after overnight stagnation. The overnight decrease in ORP was not observed when tap water was automatically flushed for five minutes at 6:00 h every morning. ORP levels in houses with chloramine residuals did not decrease consistently after overnight stagnation, and daily automated flushes did not have an observable effect on the ORP signals. Additional laboratory experiments were carried out to evaluate ORP signals during chlorine decay and after incremental changes in chlorine, as would be expected in building plumbing conditions. Results from the lab and field deployments suggest on-line ORP sensors may be used to detect free chlorine decay due to stagnating water, but are not as effective in detecting chloramine decay. However, field results also suggest ORP may not respond as expected on a timely manner after free chlorine or chloramine have been restored, hindering their applicability in developing control algorithms. In this paper we tested twice-daily five-minute automatic flushing and found that it counteracts water quality degradation associated with overnight stagnation in free chlorine systems. An automatic sensor-based flushing is proposed using online temperature sensor data to determine when flushing has reached water from the main. The results suggest that flushing informed by temperature sensors can reduce the flushing time by 46 % compared to the preset five-minute static flush.

    Abstract Virus concentrations measured in municipal wastewater help inform both the water treatment necessary to protect human health and wastewater-based epidemiology. Wastewater measurements are typically PCR-based, and interpreting gene copy concentrations requires an understanding of the form and stability of the nucleic acids. Here, we study the persistence of model virus genomes in wastewater, the protective effects provided by the virus capsids, and the relative decay rates of the genome and infectious viruses. In benchtop batch experiments in wastewater influent at 25 °C, extraviral (+)ssRNA and dsDNA amplicons degraded by 90% within 15-19 min and 1.6-1.9 h, respectively. When encapsidated, the
