NSF P477 is being forwarded by the DWTU Task Group on Cyanotoxins to the Joint Committee as a straw ballot for feedback. The protocol establishes minimum performance of drinking water treatment systems that are designed to reduce microcystins in public water supplies.
The task group has reviewed the protocol and related issues to the influent challenge, analytical methods, and scope, and has recommended that the current NSF P477 be forwarded to the JC to consider its incorporation under NSF/ANSI 53.
Please note that while P477 addresses carbon-based technologies, the task group is continuing to work on the development of a protocol for RO systems, as current published literature has shown it to be as effective. |
