Disinfection
3
The DBP Dilemma Factors Disinfection dosage Disinfectant type –Cl, NH 2 Cl, ClO2, ozone pH of the water Ammonia Bromide ion concentration Contact time
4
Known DBPs Tribromomethane - bromoform Trichloromethane - chloroform Dibromochloromethane Dichlorobromomethane Common THMs Haloacetic Acids Dibromoacetic Acid Chloroacetic Acid Dichloroacetic Acid Bromoacetic Acid Trichloroacetic Acid NDMA Bromate Chlorite Krasner, 2007

Why Should We Care? Where is your water? 2.1% of Earth’s waters are bound in ice caps and glaciers 97.2% of Earth’s waters are saline 0.6% of Earth’s waters are groundwater 0.1% of Earth’s waters reside in surface water and atmospheric moisture DBPs Can Be Carcinogens
