Multiple linear regression models for predicting trihalomethane formation from chlorinated natural waters

A USEPA survey in 1975 found trihalomethanes (THMs) to be widespread in chlorinated drinking water. A subsequent study identified humic substances as probable precursors. In 1976, the National Cancer Institute found chloroform to cause cancer in laboratory rats. Consequently, the USEPA set a maximum...
