The objectives of my internship were to make oral and poster presentations in international conferences, to collect information on water supply's quality and water reuse in megacities, and to study analytical methods of drinking water disinfection byproducts. I attended conferences with many professors and environmental leaders from Japan and overseas. For the IOA conference, my paper was selected for publication on an international journal (Ozone Science & Engineering). For the LET conference, I met a lot of professors from overseas and had discussion on drinking water quality. Finally, I learned how to measure N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), carcinogenic compounds in drinking water, at NIPH. Also, I got useful information during discussion with many researchers in the institute on the drinking water treatment in order to provide safe and satisfied drinking water.
