The Water Research Foundation Releases Seminal Drinking Water Guidance Manual
Carollo-led project advances biofiltration best practices for improved water quality
The Water Research Foundation (WRF) has published the highly anticipated Biofiltration Guidance Manual for Drinking Water Facilities, which gives water utilities a standard set of guidelines and best practices for improving overall water quality and customer satisfaction. Developed as part of WRF Project 4719 and led by Carollo Engineers’ Principal Investigator Jess Brown, PhD, PE, the manual is considered the definitive resource for biofiltration design and operation.
“We are thrilled to present this much-needed manual to the industry,” said Grace Jang, PhD, WRF Research Program Manager. “It will enable utilities to optimize their water treatment processes, effectively manage emerging contaminants, further protect their distribution systems, and provide high-quality water to their communities.”
