Biodegradation of six haloacetic acids in drinking water [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Water and Health, 2007
Haloacetic acids (HAAs) are produced by the reaction of chlorine with natural organic matter and are regulated disinfection by-products of health concern. Biofilms in drinking water distribution systems and in filter beds have been associated with the removal of some HAAs, however the removal of all six routinely monitored species (HAA6) has not been ...

Functional Characterization of a L-2-Haloacid Dehalogenase From Zobellia galactanivorans DsijT Suggests a Role in Haloacetic Acid Catabolism and a Wide Distribution in Marine Environments

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
L-2-halocid dehalogenases (L-2-HADs) have been mainly characterized from terrestrial polluted environments. By contrast, knowledge is still scarce about their role in detoxification of predominant halocarbons in marine environments.

Naturally occurring emerging contaminants: Where to hide?

open access: yesHydroResearch, 2023
Water disinfection by-products (DBPs) are among insitu-generated emerging contaminants (ECs) during water disinfection. Although water disinfectants control acute risks through destruction of water-borne pathogens, the produced DBPs are associated to ...

Temporal and Spatial Variation of Trihalomethanes and Haloacetic Acids Concentration in Drinking Water: A Case Study of Queensland, Australia

open access: yesAir, Soil and Water Research, 2011
A broad survey of regulated trihalomethanes (THM) and haloacetic acids (HAA) concentrations in Queensland drinking water was undertaken and the data were evaluated to assess the overall compliance of the region to Australian Drinking Water Guidelines ...

Emerging Trends in Organic Photoreactions Utilizing Disulfides

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 21, 4 June 2026.
Disulfides are versatile, nontoxic alternatives to metal photocatalysts. This review explores their role as photoactivated thiyl‐radical precursors and bifunctional catalysts (HAT/electron shuttling) in diverse transformations. Strategies for electronic tuning and development into recyclable heterogeneous materials are highlighted for sustainable ...

Trends in nitrate levels in Iowa's community water systems (2000–2022): Characteristics of systems vulnerable to maximum contaminant level exceedances and future regulatory scenarios

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract This study examines trends in nitrate contamination in Iowa's community water systems (CWS) from 2000 to 2022, focusing on the characteristics of CWS that are most vulnerable to elevated nitrate levels and those likely to be impacted by a lower maximum contaminant level (MCL).

Contaminants of emerging concern in agricultural soils: Current understanding, overlooked issues, and future priorities

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 792-810, May 2026.
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found

Ferrate(VI) pre-treatment and subsequent chlorination of blue-green algae: Quantification of disinfection byproducts

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2019
Algal organic matter (AOM) from seasonal algal blooms may be an important precursor of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in drinking water. This paper presents the effect of ferrate(VI) treatment on two blue-green algae, Chlorella sp.
