E. coli in Municipal Wastewater and Its Degradation Using Advanced Oxidation Processes

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Pathogenic microorganisms in wastewater pose serious health concerns. Several wastewater treatment facilities in parts of Africa discharge wastewater that has not been disinfected. In this regard, more effective approaches in wastewater disinfection are needed to tackle the problem of bacterial contamination. Various advanced oxidation processes (AOPs)

Assessing Biofiltration without Ozonation for Removal of Trihalomethane Precursors in Drinking Water at the Beaver Water District Drinking Water Treatment Plant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Biofiltration without pre-ozonation has the capability to remove natural organic matter (NOM) fractions that serve as precursors of disinfection byproducts (DBPs), which include the four regulated trihalomethanes (THMs) and dichloroacetonitrile (DCAN ...

Formation of iodo-trihalomethanes, iodo-haloacetic acids, and haloacetaldehydes during chlorination and chloramination of iodine containing waters in laboratory controlled reactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Iodine containing disinfection byproducts (I-DBPs) and haloacetaldehydes (HALs) are emerging disinfection by-product (DBP) classes of concern. The former due to its increased potential toxicity and the latter because it was found to be the third most ...

Sensory Preference of Drinking Water Influenced by Subthreshold‐Level Mineral Salt Mixtures

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
A distinct preference plateau was identified, with liking maximized near the salts' absolute thresholds. Sweetness promotion and astringency suppression were the primary sensory mechanisms driving preference in these mineral salt mixtures. A predictive model pinpointed the optimal blend (0.92 mg/L KCl; 0.60 mg/L MgSO4), providing a practical, data ...

Trihalomethanes as initiators and promoters of carcinogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Health Perspectives, 1982
Chloroform and other trihalomethanes are contaminants of drinking water that have been demonstrated to be carcinogenic in laboratory animals. Determination of the mechanism of carcinogenicity of chloroform is required so that the animal data can be extrapolated to estimate the human health hazard.
