2015 Drinking Water Disinfection By-Products: Charting the Horizons of Interdisciplinary Research and Application in Water Disinfection, By-Products, Water Reuse and Public Health

CBET 1519345 PlewaTitle：2015饮用水消毒副产品：绘制水消毒、副产品、水再利用和公共卫生跨学科研究和应用的地平线有趣的是，在20世纪美国人的预期寿命增加的30岁中，有20岁可以归因于通过实施饮用水消毒而进行的环境工程。2015戈登饮用水消毒副产品研究大会将展示水的净化和消毒副产品的生成方面的前沿研究。随着原始水源时代的结束，科学家、工程师、自来水公司、行业团体和公共卫生专业人员在生产和提供高质量饮用水方面面临着至关重要的问题。对稀缺水资源的日益增长的需求、干旱、水污染和老化的供水基础设施是社会面临的重大挑战。会议主题广泛，包括饮用水消毒副产物的形成、发生、毒性和分子机制、工程解决方案、对健康的影响和监管。这次会议的题目是《饮用水消毒副产品》，将于2015年8月9日至14日在马萨诸塞州南哈德利的曼荷莲学院举行。戈登研究会议是影响很大的会议，因为它们聚集了各自领域的前沿科学家，并将为研究生、博士后研究员和早期职业科学家提供一个联网、学习和计划未来工作的场所。戈登研究研讨会(2015年8月8日至9日)将首次为研究生、博士后研究员和早期职业科学家提供机会介绍他们的工作，并纳入戈登研究研讨会的一般性讨论。戈登研究研讨会将允许学生和早期职业科学家与该领域的资深科学家一起参加职业指导。本次戈登研究会议和研讨会的具体目的是介绍新的信息和对以下主题的批判性审查：1)缺水时代的水消毒；2)水消毒化学：新出现的DBPs的形成和检测的分析方法；3)DBP毒性：分子作用机制；4)消毒副产物分析化学、定量毒理学和流行病学的集成；5)消毒副产品和水能关系；6)废水回用、海水淡化和新兴的消毒副产品；7)中国面临的水消毒挑战和消毒副产品研究；8)消毒副产品控制的工程选择；9)消毒副产品研究：前进方向、未来研究和监管。这次会议的重点是化学、毒理学和工程学，即使用退化的水源、废水再利用和海水淡化所产生的二氯苯并苯所带来的环境风险。会议和研讨会的一个目标是协助建立由学术科学家和工程师与工业科学家组成的跨学科团队，以开发新的解决方案和替代做法，以解决这些消毒副产品问题，并保护环境和公众健康。

CBET 1519345PlewaTitle: 2015 Drinking Water Disinfection By-Products: Charting the Horizons of Interdisciplinary Research and Application in Water Disinfection, By-Products, Water Reuse and Public HealthIt is interesting to note that of the 30 years that was added to life expectancy of people in the United States in the 20th Century, 20 of those years can be attributed to Environmental Engineering through the implementation of drinking water disinfection. The 2015 Gordon Research Conference on Drinking Water Disinfection By-Products will present cutting-edge research on the purification of water and the generation of disinfection by-products. With the era of pristine source waters ending, vitally important issues confront scientists, engineers, water utilities, industry groups and public health professionals in the production and delivery of high quality potable water. Increasing demands on scarce water sources, drought, water pollution and an aging water delivery infrastructure are preeminent challenges for society. The Conference will feature a wide range of topics including Drinking Water Disinfection By-Products formation, occurrence, toxicity and molecular mechanisms, engineering solutions, health effects and regulation. The conference is entitled, "Drinking Water Disinfection By-Products" and will be held at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, MA from August 9-14, 2015. Gordon Research Conferences are high impact Conferences as they assemble scientists at the forefront of their field and will provide a venue for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and early career scientists to network, to learn and to plan future work together. For the first time, a Gordon Research Seminar, (August 8-9, 2015) will expand the opportunities for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and early career scientists to present their work, and to be integrated into the general discussion of the. The Gordon Research Seminar will allow students and early career scientists to participate in career mentorship with senior scientists in the field.The specific aims of this Gordon Research Conference and Seminar are to introduce novel information and critical review of the following topics; 1) Water disinfection in an era of water scarcity; 2) Water disinfection chemistry: analytical approaches on the formation and detection of emerging DBPs; 3) DBP toxicity: molecular mechanisms of action; 4) Integration of Disinfection By-Product analytical chemistry, quantitative toxicology and epidemiology; 5) Disinfection By-Products and the water energy nexus; 6) Wastewater reuse, desalination and emerging Disinfection By-Products; 7) Water disinfection challenges and Disinfection By-Products research in China; 8) Engineering options on Disinfection By-Product control; and 9) Disinfection By-Products research: the way forward, future research and regulation. This meetings because of its focus on the chemistry, toxicology and engineering of the environmental risks posed by emerging DBPs generated by the use degraded source waters, wastewater reuse and desalination. A goal of the Conference and Seminar is to aid in the establishment of interdisciplinary teams of academic scientists and engineers with industry scientists to develop new solutions and alternative practices to address these Disinfection By-Products issues and to protect the environment and the public health.
