Pathways of trihalomethane uptake in swimming pools
International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health, 2004Chlorination of pool water leads to the formation of numerous disinfection by-products (DBPs), chloroform usually being most abundant. Bathers and pool guardians take up various amounts of DBPs by different pathways. Identification of different uptake paths is important in order to develop a technical strategy for swimming pool water treatment and to ...

Formation of trihalomethanes in foods and beverages
Food Additives & Contaminants: Part A, 2009Trihalomethanes (THMs) are suspected carcinogens and reproductive toxicants commonly found in chlorinated drinking water. This study investigates THM formation during the preparation of beverages and foods using chlorinated drinking water. A total of 11 foods and 17 beverages were tested. Under the experimental conditions, each food and beverage formed

Trihalomethane Precursor Control by Adsorption
Journal of the Environmental Engineering Division, 1981The purpose of this project was to study the effectiveness synthetic resins and activated carbon to control trihalomethana precursors (THMP) in a finished drinking water which has the Missouri River as its principal source. As will be shown herein, a net reduction in THMP cannot necessarily by assumed when an adsorption process is being utilized.

Removing Trihalomethane Precursors by Coagulation
Journal AWWA, 1987The removal of trihalomethane precursors by coagulation was studied with low turbidity, low alkalinity waters containing high levels of aquatic humic matter. Jar tests were conducted with synthetic and natural waters using alum, high‐molecular‐weight polymers, cationic polymers, and various combinations of these coagulants. Cationic polymers alone were

Uptake of trihalomethanes by patients during hemodialysis
Clinica Chimica Acta, 1989Trihalomethanes (THM) present in tap water were also found in dialysis fluid because they were not eliminated by water treatment. THM, absorbed through the dialyser membranes, increased considerably in blood and in expired air of patients on hemodialysis during the dialysis sessions. The uptake of THM during each dialysis session was about 1 mg.

Trihalomethanes in Drinking Water and Spontaneous Abortion
Epidemiology, 1998Trihalomethanes (chloroform, bromoform, bromodichloromethane, and chlorodibromomethane) are common contaminants of chlorinated drinking water. Although animal data indicate that these compounds may be reproductive toxicants, little information exists on their relation to spontaneous abortion in humans.

Trihalomethane Formation in Open Reservoirs
Journal AWWA, 1991Historical records were used to characterize the quality of water in an open distribution reservoir with respect to trihalomethanes (THMs) and total organic halides and to explore the effect of algae, chlorine use, and reservoir bypass operation on THM formation.

Trihalomethane Formation Potential and Disinfection
Water Quality Research Journal, 1992Abstract The UVOX process was developed to reduce the high concentrations of trihalomethanes, a potentially hazardous disinfection by-product found in a surface water supply for a community in northeastern Saskatchewan. Pilot plant tests were conducted at a throughput of 1.25 l/s utilizing UV to produce hydroxyl radicals from photolysis ...
