Efficiency of conventional drinking-water-treatment processes in removal of pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds. (2007, background): “The flow of one of the two source streams ranged from about 6 to more than 81 m3/ s during the sample collection period and the concentrations of some compounds increased during high flows, whereas the concentration of others decreased (Kolpin et al., 2004).”
