IWA Publishing is pleased to announce that the 24th Editor's Choice Paper, chosen by Leiv Rieger, is now Open Access: 

"Effects of total suspended solids, particle size, and effluent temperature on the kinetics of peracetic acid decomposition in municipal wastewater"

Tasnim Amerian, Ramin Farnood, Siva Sarathy and Domenico Santoro

https://doi.org/10.2166/wst.2020.047

Why was this paper selected for Editor's Choice? 

Disinfection of water resource recovery effluent is a major concern both in terms of water quality and treatment costs. The disinfectant evaluated in this study, Peracetic Acid (PAA), seems to result in significantly reduced toxic by-products as compared to a standard chlorination process. This very structured study is looking into the impacting factors total suspended solids (TSS) and particle size distribution under varying temperatures. The results are well-presented and thoroughly discussed in view of improved design recommendations.
