Disinfection means the killing of pathogenic organisms (eg bacteria and its spores, viruses,
protozoa and their cysts, worms, and larvae) present in water to make it potable for other …

The occurrence of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) is related both to drinking water treatment
(DWT) processes and to raw water's characteristics. Emerging pollutants typically occur in …

Ferrate (VI) and peracetic acid (PAA) are two oxidants of growing importance in water
treatment. Recently, our group found that simultaneous application of ferrate (VI) and PAA …

Halogenated disinfection byproducts (DBPs) are generated via reactions with natural
organic matter (NOM) in chlorine disinfection of drinking water. How large NOM molecules …

In this work, the occurrence of contaminants in drinking water sources was described in
relation to their treatment options based on both conventional (eg, coagulation-flocculation …

The quality of drinking-water supplies is of fundamental importance to public health and
sustainable development. Here, we provide a spatial assessment of the tap-water quality …

With the development of analytical technology, more emerging disinfection by-products
(DBPs) have been identified and detected. Among them, aromatic DBPs, especially …

Interest in the formation of nitrogenous disinfection byproducts (N-DBPs) has increased
because toxicological research has indicated that they are often more genotoxic, cytotoxic …

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 …

The unintended formation of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) may compromise the safety of
drinking water. Since no specified DBPs have been found to be responsible for the overall …
