About This Item
Full Description
A two-phase project was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of various in-home treatment methods for removing volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) from drinking water. These methods are intended for temporary use in emergency situations. In phase one of the study, six methods -- boiling, electric mixing, open standing, aeration, pouring, and faucet aeration -- were examined with simple tests before and after treatment. Based on the results of phase one, the first four methods were reexamined in phase two, during which VOC loss over time was monitored. Results showed that two methods -- boiling and electric mixing -- removed approximately one hundred percent of the VOCs. Includes 13 references, tables, figures.
