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:

Disinfection by-products: a case study of occurrence of non-regulated disinfection by-products from the Capalaba region’s distribution system
Maria José Farré,Nicole Knight,H King,Emmanuelle Filloux,Jurg Keller,Wolfgang Gernjak,Kalinda Watson,Fred Leusch,Michael Bartkow,Brad Taylor,Paul Burrell +10 more
TL;DR: A survey of disinfection byproduct (DBP) occurrence was conducted atthe Capalaba Water Treatment Plant(WTP) in Brisbane and at 19 samplingpoints of the distribution system forsix months through spring-summer2011 as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation pathways and kinetics of chloroacetonitriles by UV/persulfate in the presence of bromide.
TL;DR: In this paper , the degradation of chloroacetonitriles (CANs) by UV/persulfate (PS) was investigated and it was found that CAN degradation was highly inhibited by Br-.
Journal ArticleDOI
The fates of aromatic protein and soluble microbial product-like organics, as the precursors of dichloroacetonitrile and dichloroacetamide, in drinking water advanced treatment processes
TL;DR: In this paper, the removal of precursors of DCAN and DCAcAm was investigated when biological activated carbon filtration (BACF) was used as an advanced treatment process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanistic insight into the adsorption of low concentrations of N-nitrosodiethylamine in water by functional MIL-96: experiments and theoretical calculations
TL;DR: In this paper , two metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were used for the adsorption of N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) in low concentrations.

Will UK peatland restoration reduce dissolved organic matter concentrations in upland drinking water supplies
Jennifer Williamson,Chris D. Evans,Bryan M. Spears,Amy Pickard,Pippa J. Chapman,Heidrun Feuchtmayr,Fraser Leith,Don Monteith +7 more
TL;DR: A review of the published evidence suggests that catchment management could make a contribution to mitigating recent dissolved organic matter (DOM) increases in some circumstances, particularly where plantation forestry has been grown on peat, and where control of nutrients in runoff could reduce in-reservoir DOM production as discussed by the authors.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Occurrence of a New Generation of Disinfection Byproducts
Stuart W. Krasner,Howard S. Weinberg,Susan D. Richardson,Salvador J. Pastor,Russell Chinn,Michael J. Sclimenti,Gretchen D. Onstad,Alfred D. Thruston +7 more
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.
