Effect of Water Chemistry, Pipe Material, Temperature and Flow on the Building Plumbing Microbiome and Opportunistic Pathogen Occurrence
… and those of building-level features, such as pipe materials. To this end, standardized pipe rigs were deployed at the treatment plants and in distal portions of the water distribution system at five water utilities across the eastern U.S. Source water and treatment practices appeared to be the …

Advancing the Understanding of Water Distribution System Corrosion: Effects of Chlorine and Aluminum on Copper Pitting, Temperature Gradients on Copper Corrosion, and Silica on Iron Release
… the effect of temperature gradients on copper pipe corrosion during stagnant conditions. The pipe orientation in relation to the temperature gradient determined whether convective mixing would occur, which influenced temperature gradients within the pipe. This work is the first to demonstrate …

Initiation, Propagation, and Mitigation of Aluminum and Chlorine Induced Pitting Corrosion
… was aggressive enough to eat a hole through a pipe, 3) examine phosphate inhibition, and 4) try to determine the scope of this pitting problem in other distribution systems and on a national level. The first set of experiments clearly defined the controversial trends from earlier work. At …
