Removal of disinfection byproduct precursors by granular activated carbon: Hillsborough county water treatment facility case study

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors evaluated the performance of different granular activated carbon (GAC) systems for removing organic precursor from groundwater with both batch and column tests and found that the Coconut shell-based GAC has the highest adsorption capacity (2.83 (mg/g) (L/mg)1/n) and the lowest adsoreption rate (3.54 × 10−5 g/mg∙min).

Investigating biodegradability of dissolved organic nitrogen in oligotrophic and eutrophic systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey of DON in Oligotrophic Systems, Eutrophic Environments, Soil and Soil, and discuss the potential for DON in each of them.

Byproduct formation in heterogeneous catalytic ozonation processes

TL;DR: Heterogeneous catalytic ozonation (HCO) is a promising advanced oxidation process (AOP) that can effectively degrade recalcitrant organic pollutants; but formation of harmful byproducts should be carefully evaluated as discussed by the authors .

The chlorination of glycine and α-alanine at excess HOCl: Kinetics and mechanism.

TL;DR: In this paper , the chlorination of the two simplest amino acids at HOCl excess was studied by stopping-flow, conventional spectrophotometric and time resolved 1H NMR kinetic methods at 25 °C.

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.

Occurrence of a New Generation of Disinfection Byproducts

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.
