Detection of Brominated By-Products Using a Sensor Array Based on Nanostructured Thin Films of Conducting Polymers

Sensors, 2007
The detection of the carcinogenic trihalomethanes (THM) in public water supplysystems using low-cost equipment has become an essential feature, since these compoundsmay be generated as by-products of water-treatment processes.

Fenton Treatment of Filter Backwash Water for Recycling in DWTP

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 3, March 2026.
The graphical abstract illustrates the treatment and recycling pathway of filter backwash water (FBW) generated in drinking water treatment plants. The proposed treatment innovatively applies the Fenton advanced oxidation process, using the iron naturally present in the FBW, with a sedimentation step for effective clarification. ABSTRACT Drinking water

Contamination of Bathing Waters with Trihalomethanes in Slovenia

Zdravniški Vestnik, 2015
THM and AOX compounds form as by-products of disinfection with the use of chlorine. THM compounds can pose problems for pool water, while AOX compounds can be problematic for waste water.

A Guideline to Evaluate Sorbent Performance for Atmospheric Water Harvesting

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
Reporting guidelines for atmospheric water harvesting sorbents allow benchmarking between research groups across seven key performance indicators (KPIs). Beyond simple equilibrium values (such as capacity or maximum water uptake), these KPIs validate sensitivity, reversibility, regeneration conditions, chemical stability, kinetics, and water quality ...

Ecotoxicological Evaluation of Soil Irrigated With Cattle Slaughter Effluent Disinfected With Peracetic Acid Using the Bioindicators Eisenia fetida and Vibrio fischeri

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 2, February 2026.
Cattle slaughter effluent disinfected with peracetic acid increased toxicity to E. fetida and V. fischeri and increased soil degradability. Cattle slaughter effluent did not demonstrate toxicity to V. fischeri. ABSTRACT The increasing volume of effluents generated by slaughterhouses is driving studies that seek sustainable alternatives for their reuse ...

Survey of the effective factors in the production of HAAs and measuring their concentration in the Tehran outlet water treatment plants in the first half of 2010

سلامت و محیط, 2014
Background and Objectives:Chlorination is the most common method of water disinfection. Chlorine reaction with natural organic compounds nor removed completely during treatment process would result in forming disinfection byproducts.

Validation of Sanitizer Concentration to Reduce Cross‐Contamination Risk During Washing of Apples

Journal of Food Process Engineering, Volume 49, Issue 2, February 2026.
Eighty parts per million PAA was more effective at removing E. coli TVS353 on inoculated apples at both COD levels, achieving reduction levels of 5.3–6.0 log MPN/apple compared to 80 ppm NaOCl (2.9–3.7 log MPN/apple). Both sanitizers were effective at preventing E. coli cross‐contamination compared to no sanitizer treatment.

Removal of Trihalomethanes from Water using Modified Montmorillonite

Acta Chimica Slovenica, 2020
Trihalomethanes (THMs) are formed during the water chlorination process through the reaction between chlorine and the organic materials. In this research, montmorillonite (MMT) and its modified form were used to remove the THMs from the water.

Placental Abruption and Perinatal Mortality: Abnormal Placentation and Spontaneous Abortion as Contributors to Left Truncation Bias

Paediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 133-143, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Generally, studies in perinatal epidemiology restrict cohort entry to 20 weeks of gestation, but exposures and outcomes may occur earlier. This restriction may introduce left truncation bias. Objectives To examine the impact of left truncation bias when estimating the causal effect of abruption on perinatal mortality in the context ...
