Dr. Alexander published a paper in one of the leading open-access journals for Chemistry content, Molecules entitled “Methyl-cyclohexane methanol (MCHM) isomer-dependent binding on amorphous carbon surfaces”. This paper investigates the hypothesis that differences in the MCHM isomer binding to carbonaceous filter media, combined with seasonal water temperatures, resulted in MCHM again entering the drinking water system in WV months after the Jan 2014 MCHM spill was “cleaned up”. The work was supported by the National Science Foundation and CROMIUM. The paper can be accessed here.
