Fox (Arizona State U.) and a team of scientists, faculty, and graduate students from universities, in addition to the County Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles Los Angeles (lôs ăn`jələs, lŏs, ăn`jəlēz'), city (1990 pop. 3,485,398), seat of Los Angeles co., S Calif.; inc. 1850.  County, provide a study funded by the Awwa Research Foundation, Water Environment Research Foundation, and the co-funding utilities. The results are the second phase in the project, following the first published in 2001 as Soil Aquifer Treatment for Sustainable Water Reuse. The study evaluates the sustainability of soil aquifer treatment (SAT) and emerging contaminants and issues, the effectiveness of SAT processes, and how the information can be used to design, operate, and regulate SAT systems. Chapters discuss field sites and test results, water quality parameters, methods to isolate, dissolved organic carbon Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is a broad classification for organic molecules of varied origin and composition within aquatic systems. The "dissolved" fraction of organic carbon is an operational classification. Many researchers place the dissolved/colloidal cutoff at 0. , trace organics, nitrogen removal, modeling and systems analysis, and practical applications for the research for effluent effluent
