The Water Quality Association (WQA) has released a new podcast episode that features a segment from a recent Water Quality Research Foundation webinar about emerging contaminants—chemicals or materials that can pollute drinking water and harm human health.

The episode features Richard Mest, president of Master Water Conditioning Corp, who defines emerging contaminants, the risk they pose to the public, and how water treatment professionals should approach their job of offering point of use and point of entry treatment solutions.
