WWRC 89-46
Prezonation of Algal Laden Waters

Abstract

Trihalomethanes (THMs) are suspected carcinogens that are formed in the water treatment process upon chlorination of THM precursor compounds. Organic materials such as humic substances and algal biomass have been shown to be THM precursors. This study examines the effect of ozone on these THM precursor compounds in waters that have a high organic load due to the presence of an algal bloom.
