Viewpoint – A Water Utility Engineer Assesses Fundamental Research
In the past, the impetus for fundamental research in the water and wastewater fields was the need to solve pressing problems of public health and consumer acceptance. Recently, however, the impetus for fundamental research is either actual or anticipated regulatory activity on the federal level. In this article, the author reviews traditional water quality problems and trace‐contaminant water quality problems relative to the water works industry's current understanding and ability to cope with these problems. In general, the traditional water quality problems, such as common pathogens, gross particulates, color, hardness, total dissolved solids, and taste and odor, have been adequately identified and treatment methods effectively applied. Current understanding of trace‐contaminant water quality problems, including microbiological, trace particulates, trace organics, and trace metals, has not yet reached the level of understanding available for traditional water quality problems.
