Evaluating the Efficiency of the Fenton-Ultrasonic Process in Degradation of Trihalomethanes Precursors from Aqueous Environments Using Zero Iron by Response Surface Method

open access: yesArmaghane Danesh Bimonthly Journal, 2022
Background & aim: The presence of natural organic substances (NOM) in aqueous solutions due to the creation of disinfection by-products (DBP) including trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs), as a result of the chlorination of aqueous ...

Cometabolism of Trihalomethanes by Nitrosomonas europaea [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2005
ABSTRACT The ammonia-oxidizing bacterium Nitrosomonas europaea (ATCC 19718) was shown to degrade low concentrations (50 to 800 μg/liter) of the four trihalomethanes (trichloromethane [TCM], or chloroform; bromodichloromethane [BDCM]; dibromochloromethane [DBCM]; and tribromomethane [TBM], or bromoform ...

Removal of natural organic matter from water by coagulation and flocculation to mitigate the formation of chlorine-disinfection by-products: a case study at Chinaimo water treatment plant, Vientiane capital, Laos

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Science, Technology and Engineering, 2022
The reaction between natural organic matter (NOM) and chlorine during disinfection of water potentially forms trihalomethanes (THMs), which are classified as dangerous, carcinogenic disinfection by-products.

Potential cancer risk estimates from trihalomethanes in peri-urban settings of Kawama East of Mufulira, Zambia

open access: yesJournal of Water and Health, 2022
In this study, we report the formation and cancer risk estimation of trihalomethanes (THMs) emanating from ‘ex-situ’ chlorination of shallow hand-dug well water obtained from a peri-urban area of Mufulira District, Zambia.

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
