Effects of nitrate and glucose on the formation of chloronitromethane (CNM) under UV/chlorine treatment
The existence of nitrate and dissolved organic matter (DOM) in water can react with chlorine disinfectant to form chloronitromethane (CNM) with high toxicity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of NH4NO3, NaNO3 and Ca(NO3)2 on the formation of CNM under UV/chlorine treatment wh...

The maximum concentration of CNM from nitrates was promoted by UV/chlorine treatment.;
The potential of forming CNM from NH4NO3 was larger than NaNO3 and Ca(NO3)2 under UV/chlorine treatment.;
There was an insignificant difference in the formation of CNM between NaNO3 and Ca(NO3)2, except for alkaline conditions.; |
