Description:
Recognizing these needs, researchers from Zhejiang University (China), the US EPA and the University of Alberta (Canada) organized the “International Conference on Drinking Water Safety, Security and Sustainability” in October 2011 in Hangzhou, China. The conference was attended by researchers from 18 countries. A wide range of topics were discussed and opinions were exchanged in the areas of water supply, water security and emerging issues. Subsequently, a call for papers for this special issue was announced with the manuscript submission deadline in October 2012. Ten papers contained in this issue were selected from the voluntary submissions and have gone through the regular peer-review process.
