Dr. Wang Haibo is interested in the effects of drinking water and waste water treatment processes on the water quality transformation in water distribution systems, including the formation and release of corrosion scales, formation of DBPs and the regrowth of microbes, especially the opportunistic pathogens. Studying the water quality transformation processes in water distribution systems in order to optimize the water treatment technology and to guarantee the tap water quality.
