intoDBP is collaborative project that will develop, test, scale-up, validate, and benchmark innovative tools and strategies to protect catchments and minimize human exposure to disinfection by-products (DBP) under current and future climates, without compromising disinfection efficacy, and which could be applied at the global scale. The project will develop its cross-cutting solutions on 4 complementary case studies combining rural and dense urban areas, from 3 European countries where DBPs are a scientific, technological, and political challenge.

ISGlobal coordinates workpackage 6, aimed to increase the understanding of DBP exposure in European populations through 3 specific objectives:

  • 1) Describe personal behaviour leading to DBP exposure in different populations throughout Europe and identify determinants including personal variables, risk perception, and drinking water quality;
  • 2) Identify patterns of occurrence of emerging DBP in the case-study sites to build predictive models based on routinely monitored parameters; and
  • 3) Assess the links between DBP concentrations in finished drinking water and extreme weather events, in particular drought.
