Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Chemical disinfection of water has been commonly applied to protect public health from waterborne infectious diseases. Chemical disinfectants are strong oxidants that react with the building blocks or alter the metabolism of pathogenic organisms, killing them as the final consequence. These...Read more

To Regulate or Not to Regulate? What to Do With More Toxic Disinfection By-Products?

(Corresponding) Richardson S., Plewa M., Wagner E., Krasner S., Liberatore H., Jia A., Guo Y.

Topic:

Drinking water safety

Drinking water disinfection by-products (DBPs) are an unintended consequence of using chemical disinfectants to kill harmful pathogens in water. DBPs are formed by the reaction of disinfectants with naturally occurring organic matter, bromide, and iodide, as well as from anthropogenic pollutants,...Read more
