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.

A comparison of disinfection by-products found in chlorinated and chloraminated drinking waters in Scotland.
Emma H. Goslan,Stuart W. Krasner,Matthew Bower,Sophie A. Rocks,Philip Holmes,Leonard S. Levy,Simon A. Parsons +6 more
TL;DR: There were no significant differences in the levels of nitrogenous DBPs between the treatment works using chlorination or chloramination with the exception of the nitrosamine N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) which was present at one treatment works in one season.

Drinking water disinfection by-products: an Australian perspective
Karen L Simpson,Keith P Hayes +1 more
TL;DR: A number of analytical methods for the determination of disinfection byproduct (DBP) were assessed and an analytical survey of 16 drinking waters from around Australia was conducted to determine their occurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI
N-Nitrosation by Nitrite Ion in Neutral and Basic Medium
Larry K. Keeper,Peter P. Roller +1 more
TL;DR: The reaction proceeds easily enough to have potential synthetic applications; the proposed mechanism could explain some reported anomalies regarding the synthesis of carcinogenic N-nitrogen compounds in vivo and in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrolysis of haloacetonitriles: LINEAR FREE ENERGY RELATIONSHIP, kinetics and products
TL;DR: In this paper, the stability of haloacetamides was studied in aqueous buffer solution at different pH levels and the hydrolysis rate increased with increasing pH and number of halogen atoms in the molecule.
