Water Framework Directive Article 7, The Drinking Water Directive and European Pesticide Regulation: impacts on diffuse pesticide pollution, potable water decision making and catchment management strategy [PDF]

, 2013
The European Water Framework Directive (WFD) promotes increased awareness of catchment processes and challenges the established dependence on a ‘treatment-led approach’ for the supply of European Drinking Water Directive (DWD) compliant potable water. In

Restricted Use Pesticides

EDIS, 2005
Restricted use pesticides (RUP) are only for retail sale to, and use by, certified applicators or persons under their direct supervision, and only for those purposes covered by the applicator's certification. When a pesticide is classified as restricted,

China pollutant discharge permits as a link between total emission control and water quality: a pilot study of the pesticide industry

Water Policy, 2022
The deficiency of China's current pollution discharge permit system lies in the failure to improve the water quality effectively. This paper discusses the premise that the water quality of a water environmental functional zone (WEFZ) is mostly affected ...

Detection of Pesticide Residue Level in Grape Using Hyperspectral Imaging with Machine Learning

Foods, 2022
Rapid and accurate detection of pesticide residue levels can help to prevent the harm of pesticide residue. This study used visible/near-infrared (Vis-NIR) (376–1044 nm) and near-infrared (NIR) (915–1699 nm) hyperspectral imaging systems (HISs) to detect
