From the meeting
At its October 13, 2026 presentation, the Water Center at Penn said more funding is needed for water systems to add advanced treatment technologies for contaminants of emerging concern (CECs). The talk highlighted treatment options such as advanced oxidation processes, granular activated carbon, reverse osmosis, ultraviolet, ion exchange, and ultrafiltration. This is a planning signal for utilities and water vendors, but no specific Pennsylvania project, budget, or procurement was named.
