Occurrence and control of nitrogenous disinfection by-products in drinking water--a review.
TLDR
A critical review of the occurrence and control of nitrogenous disinfection by-products is provided, finding that the sum of analysed halonitromethanes represented 3-4% of the mass of THMs on a median basis.About:

Evaluation of N-acetylcysteine and glutathione as quenching agents for the analysis of halogenated disinfection by-products.
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors evaluated the performance of Nacetylcysteine (NAC) and glutathione (GSH) as quenching agents for the analysis of halogenated DBPs by investigating the stoichiometry of the disinfectant-quenching agent reaction.

BiOBr photocatalyzed decarboxylation of glutamic acid: reaction rates, intermediates and mechanism
TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation of glutamic acid by BiOBr under both UV and visible irradiation was investigated and compared with degradation by TiO2/UV, and it was shown that both systems catalyze direct substrate oxidation by valance band holes.

Predictive modeling of haloacetonitriles under uniform formation conditions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed models to predict the formation of HANs under uniform formation conditions (UFC) in chlorinated, choraminated, and perchlorinated/chloraminated waters of different origins.

TL;DR: The main policy recommendation for the Government of NL is to develop and support a multi-faceted education campaign around the potential health impacts of DBPs, the role of chlorination in publicly supplied drinking water, and solutions and alternatives available in preventing and/or mitigating DBP impacts.

Occurrence, genotoxicity, and carcinogenicity of regulated and emerging disinfection by-products in drinking water: a review and roadmap for research.
TL;DR: The brominated DBPs were the most genotoxic of all but have not been tested for carcinogenicity and highlighted the emerging importance of dermal/inhalation exposure to the THMs, or possibly other DBPs, and the role of genotype for risk for drinking-water-associated bladder cancer.

Reactions of chlorine with inorganic and organic compounds during water treatment—Kinetics and mechanisms: A critical review
TL;DR: Comparison of chlorine to ozone reactivity towards aromatic compounds (electrophilic attack) shows a good correlation, with chlorine rate constants being about four orders of magnitude smaller than those for ozone.

TL;DR: A survey of disinfection byproduct (DBP) occurrence in the United States was conducted at 12 drinking water treatment plants to obtain quantitative occurrence information for new DBPs (beyond those currently regulated and/or studied) for prioritizing future health effects studies.
