Decentralized Systems: Our Approach
WERF developed a Decentralized Research Advisory Council (DRAC) made
up of leaders in industry, government, and the private sector to
determine the annual projects and priorities for research in
decentralized environmental science and engineering, to increase the
body of peer-reviewed knowledge in this area. Research projects
include guidance for establishing responsible management entities, the
performance of treatment technologies, remote sensing, watershed models,
and influent characteristics. Communicating the results of the
research in a user-friendly fashion is a key focus.
