Profile

Biostability in a full-scale DWDS

This project aims understanding the effects of AOC and particles on the biostability in a full-scale drinking water distribution system (DWDS). Jiwon's visiting research program is supported by Korean government and National Research Foundation (NRF) of Korea.

Research interests

The fate of natural organic matter and assimilable organic carbon in water treatment systems.
Flow cytometric analysis, NOM characterisation, and their novel applications for safe drinking water.
Multivariable water quality data analysis and machine learning.
