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:

Halonitroalkanes, Halonitriles, Haloamides, and N-Nitrosamines: A Critical Review of Nitrogenous Disinfection Byproduct Formation Pathways
Amisha D. Shah,William A. Mitch +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the formation pathways for nitrogenous disinfection byproducts (N-DBPs) associated with chlorine, ozone, chlorine dioxide, UV, and chloramine disinfection are critically reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Formation, precursors, control, and occurrence of nitrosamines in drinking water: a review.
TL;DR: This review summarizes major findings over the last decade related to nitrosamines in drinking water, with a particular focus on N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), because it is among the most widely detected nitrosamine in drinking waters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Precursors of nitrogenous disinfection by-products in drinking water--a critical review and analysis
TL;DR: It was calculated that for HANs and HAcAms, the concentrations of known precursors - mainly free amino acids are insufficient to account for the observed concentrations of these N-DBP groups, however, at least in some waters, a significant proportion of CNX and NDMA formation can be explained by known precurors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Permanganate Preoxidation and Preozonation on Algae Containing Water: Cell Integrity, Characteristics, and Chlorinated Disinfection Byproduct Formation
TL;DR: The results suggest that permanganate is a better choice than ozone for controlling algae derived pollutants and disinfection byproducts after preozonation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent developments in environmental photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants: the case of titanium dioxide nanoparticles—a review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore and summarize recent efforts in the area of titania nanoparticle synthesis, modifications, and application for water treatment purposes, and conclude that Titania nanoparticles are intended to be both supplementary and complementary to the present water treatment technologies through the destruction or transformation of hazardous chemical wastes to innocuous end-products, that is, CO2 and H2O.

NDMA Formation during Chlorination and Chloramination of Aqueous Diuron Solutions
Wei-Hsiang Chen,Thomas M. Young +1 more
TL;DR: The findings in this study identify a specific potential precursor of NDMA formation, one that arises from nonpoint sources, which further highlights the difficulties associated with determining the environmental safety of chemicals and their associated byproducts.

The formation of trichloronitromethane (chloropicrin) and chloroform in a combined ozonation/chlorination treatment of drinking water
Jürg Hoigné,Heinz Bader +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the role of nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) as a presursor for trichloronitromethane (TCNM) formation in Lake Zurich and Greifensee.

Multispectral Identification of Chlorine Dioxide Disinfection Byproducts in Drinking Water
Susan D. Richardson,Alfred D. Thruston,Timothy W. Collette,Kathleen S. Patterson,Benjamin W. Lykins,George Majetich,Yong Zhang +6 more
TL;DR: Unconventioal multispectral identification techniques were used to identify more than 40 DBPs in finished water at a chlorine dioxide pilot plant in Evansville, IN.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of the pre-oxidation of natural organic matter on the formation of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA).
Zhuo Chen,Richard L. Valentine +1 more
TL;DR: The amount of NDMA formed after monochloramine was added or formed in situ, in the case when free chlorine was the preoxidant, was significantly reduced by these treatments indicating that SUVA may be a good surrogate for NDMA precursor content.
