Water Quality Research Grants
The Water Quality Research Foundation (WQRF) is issuing this request for concept papers (RFCP) under its research grant program. The grant program allows researchers flexibility for submission of unique study concepts that are topical to WQRF’s mission. Concepts with the best likelihood to advance knowledge and the science of high quality, sustainable drinking water will be invited to submit a full concept for funding consideration. A maximum of two (2) grants will be awarded this cycle. The proposed research concept must fit into at least one of the following themes:

1. Identifying treatment approaches for emerging contaminants in drinking water (PFAS, microplastics, lithium, microorganisms, etc.)
2. Removing multiple classes of contaminants simultaneously from drinking water
   

WQRF does not fund technology development-related activities, such as validation testing of new products.
