Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drinking water disinfection has markedly reduced diseases causes by waterborne pathogenic microorganisms. However, an unintended consequence of disinfection and/or oxidation processes is the generation of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) which are formed from the reactions of disinfectants/oxidants with water matrix components. This volume of the Comprehensive Analytical Chemistry Handbook presents recent advances about the formation, identification, and quantification of inorganic and organic DBPs during oxidative processes. The book begins with a first chapter reviewing the most recent non-targeted screening approaches and workflows to characterize DBPs using low-, high-, and ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry. The second chapter discusses the analysis of inorganic chloramines in waters using on-site and/or in-lab analytical methods. The third chapter provides an overview of the current knowledge about the mechanisms of chlorine dioxide reactions and byproducts formation. The fourth chapter presents some fundamental and practical aspects about ozonation processes in water treatment and provides an overview about ozone reaction mechanisms and byproducts formation. The fifth chapter focuses on the reactivity of halide ions, particularly bromide and iodide, with common oxidants and the role they play in determining the speciation of DBPs in treated waters. The chapter also presents strategies to mitigate the formation of DBPs during oxidation processes. Finally, the last chapter tackles the topic of DBPs formation during potable water reuse. It discusses the formation of DBPs of major concern in both memebrane-based and non-membrane-based potable water reuse treatment schemes.Researchers, water treatment specialists, and regulators will find in this book a valuable and compact resource on several key topics regarding the formation, identification, quantification, and mitigation of DBPs. - Identification and quantification of known and unknown DBPs - Formation of DBPs during different disinfection/oxidation processes - DBPs of concern in new technologies and/or new applications of existing technologies in water treatment

Download or read book Disinfection By Products in Water written by Chao Chen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2024-11-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive review of disinfection by-products (DBPs), exploring various aspects from detection methods and precursors to their potential health risks, regulation, and future implications. This book is also a memorial to the 50th anniversary of the first major DBP report in 1974 by Dr. Rook, who identified chloroform in chlorinated drinking water, initiating the study of DBPs. For half a century, chemists, toxicologists, engineers and regulators have been identifying more DBPs, understanding their formation mechanism, evaluating their health effects on the public, and minimizing and controlling their formation in drinking water. Divided into four parts, the book commences with an introduction to the general knowledge of DBPs, shedding light on the significance of DBPs and their impact on water quality. It also delves into the detection methods employed to identify and quantify DBPs, offering readers invaluable insights into cutting-edge techniques and emerging technologies, and explores the sources and characteristics of DBP precursors. In Part II, several expert contributors provide an overview of individual DBPs, including halogenated aliphatic, iodinated, aromatic, and heterocyclic DBPs, discussing their properties and potential implications. The discussion extends to nitrogenous DBPs, the group of nitrosamines, and inorganic DBPs as well. Part III provides an authoritative perspective on the relationship between energy consumption, climate change, and DBP formation, offering also insights into DBPs in the context of water treatment plants, water reuse plants, swimming pools, and everyday life. The book closes with a section devoted to the health effects of DBPs, where particular attention is given to the analysis of the toxicity and health risks associated with DBPs. In this section, readers will find more about the potential adverse effects of DBPs on human health and current research on risk assessment and management strategies. In today's era of water scarcity and increasing demands for safe drinking water, the presence of DBPs has emerged as a critical concern in the field of public health. This book is, therefore, an invaluable resource for researchers, water treatment professionals, public health officials, and policymakers seeking a comprehensive understanding of DBPs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disinfection by-products (DBPs) are potentially toxic compounds formed when drinking water is treated with disinfectants, such as chlorine or chloramine. A large proportion of the exposure to DBPs is still unknown and the health risks observed through epidemiological studies cannot be explained by DBPs known today. In this thesis, a part of the unknown DBP fraction is investigated, covering a wide range of non-volatile, chlorine/bromine-containing DBPs. The goals were to investigate how the compositions of these DBPs differ between water treatment plants, how their occurrence changes in the distribution system until reaching consumers and how new treatment techniques can reduce their formation and toxicity. To analyze unknown DBPs, a non-targeted approach adopting ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry, Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS), was used, where the mass of molecules is measured with such accuracy that the elemental composition of individual DBPs can be calculated. A panel of bioassays was used to assess the combined toxic effects from these DBP mixtures. The results show that the formation of these DBPs to a large extent was specific to each water treatment plant and that local conditions influenced DBP formation, based on e.g., the abundance of organic material with certain chemical structures, bromide and disinfection procedure and agent (chlorine or chloramine). The DBPs were detected in both chlorinated and chloraminated water and in all tap water samples, demonstrating that they are part of human exposure. The number of DBP formulae decreased and the DBP composition changed between drinking water treatment and consumer taps, suggesting that DBP exposure to consumers is not necessarily resembling measurements at the treatment plants. Evaluation of new treatment techniques showed that suspended ion exchange and ozonation have potential to decrease the formation and toxic effects of DBPs and that the removal of organic matter can influence qualitative aspects of DBP formation, such as the proportions of chlorine-containing (less toxic) versus bromine-containing (more toxic) DBPs. Through increased knowledge about the role and relevance of non-volatile DBPs, this work can contribute to future monitoring and actions to reduce the health risks associated with DBPs in chlorinated or chloraminated drinking water. Desinfektionsbiprodukter (DBP:s) är potentiellt giftiga ämnen som bildas när dricksvatten renas med desinfektionsmedel såsom hypoklorit eller monokloramin. En stor del av exponeringen är ännu okänd och hittills kända DBP:s kan inte förklara de hälsorisker som förknippats med klorerat dricksvatten i epidemiologiska studier. I avhandlingen undersöks en relativt okänd fraktion av DBP:s som utgörs av icke-flyktiga, klor/brom-innehållande ämnen. Målen var att undersöka hur dessa DBP:s varierar mellan olika vattenverk, om de förekommer hos konsumenter och hur nya vattenreningstekniker kan minska dess bildandning och relaterad toxicitet. För att mäta okända DBP:s användes ultrahögupplöst masspektrometri (Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS)), med vilken massan hos molekyler kan bestämmas så exakt att atomsammansättningen för enskilda DBP:s kan räknas ut. En serie effektbaserade metoder som bygger på biologiska testsystem användes för att mäta kombinerade toxiska effekter från de studerade biprodukterna. Resultaten visar att största delen av bildade DBP:s var unik för varje vattenverk och att lokala förutsättningar påverkar vilka DBP:s som bildas, till exempel om det finns organiskt material med särskilda kemiska strukturer, bromid eller vilket desinfektionsmedel (klor eller kloramin) som används. De studerade biprodukterna detekterades både i klorerat och kloraminerat dricksvatten och i samtliga kranvatten, vilket innebär att de bidrar till konsumenters exponering. Antalet detekterade DBP:s minskade och sammansättningen ändrades mellan vattenverk och konsument, vilket innebär att DBP exponeringen hos konsumenter inte är densamma som mäts på vattenverken. En utvärdering av nya reningstekniker visade att suspenderat jonbyte och ozonering har potential att minska bildning och relaterad toxisk effekt från DBP:s och att borttagning av organiskt material kan påverka kvalitativa aspekter av DBP bildning, såsom proportionerna av klorerade (mindre toxiska) och bromerade (mer toxiska) DBP:s. Genom ökad insikt om icke-flyktiga DBP:s roll och relevans kan detta arbete bidra till att förbättra framtida uppföljning och insatser för att minska hälsorisker kopplade till DBP:s i klorerat eller kloraminerat dricksvatten.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chlorine is the most common disinfectant used; its use has dramatically decreased a number of waterborne diseases. However, the use of disinfectants creates another potential problem in the creation of disinfection by-products (DBPs). The United States Environmental Protection Agency has determined DBPs may be a carcinogen and may pose a risk to human risk. Research was conducted on whether alkalinity and hardness contribute to DBP formation. The waters were tested under low and high hardness, low and high alkalinity, and a global mean value. Not until pH 10 was there a significant decrease in DBPs formed for the high hardness compared to low hardness concentrations. The high alkalinity concentrations suppressed the DBP formation potential. Under the global mean value the formation potential was approximately the addition of the individual tests. These tests may aid in potential strategy in limiting DBP formation, by keeping the alkalinity value high there would be a suppression of DBP formation. Additionally, if the treatment plant was treating water a pH of 10.0, then a high hardness concentration may aid in DBP formation reduction as well.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little is known about the specific disinfection by-products (DBPs) in drinking water that may cause cancer in humans. In fact, toxicological research in the past decade has cast significant doubt on the risk associated with the THMs and HAAs that are subject to regulation. This research identifies from among hundreds of disinfection by-products formed by the chlorination of drinking water those DBPs that are most likely to cause human cancer. Identification of potential cancer-causing DBPs will help researchers prioritize further research.
