Survey and Assessment of Fate and Transport Models for Use Following a Wide-Area Urban Release to Inform Mapping, Characterization, and Site Clearance
(PUBLISHED REPORT) [Published : Oct 09, 2018]
If a terrorist event or natural disaster causes a wide area of land to be contaminated with chemical, biological, or radiological particulates, emergency responders need a rapid way to determine where to sample and decontaminate prior to clearing the area. A comprehensive stormwa...
The Feasibility of Developing a Physical Model Using Rapid Manufacturing Technologies by Referencing Remotely Sensed Data to Simulate Outdoor Environments
(PUBLISHED REPORT) [Published : Nov 07, 2018]
This report was prepared to evaluate the feasibility of using rapid manufacturing technologies (i.e., computer numerical controlled (CNC) milling, printing) to develop three-dimensional (3D) physical models as surrogates for outdoor field experiments. These models have the potent...
The effectiveness of disinfection and flushing procedures to prevent coliform persistence in aircraft water systems
(JOURNAL) [Published : Dec 24, 2018]
Maintaining safe water on board commercial aircraft is critical to the safety of passengers and compliance with regulations. The conclusions from this study can help commercial air carriers deliver safe water by indicating that coliform bacteria are not persistent on aircraft plu...

Decontamination of Bacillus spores adhered to iron and cement-mortar drinking water infrastructure in a model system using disinfectants
(JOURNAL) [Published : Feb 01, 2017]
Bacillus spores are persistent on common drinking water infrastructure surfaces such as corroded iron and cement-mortar. Due to their resistance to disinfection, inactivation of spores can be used as a benchmark for decontamination of biological agents from drinking water infrast...
