Formation of Iodo-Trihalomethanes during Disinfection and Oxidation of Iodide-Containing Waters
Open accessAbstract
The formation of iodo-trihalomethanes (I-THMs) such as iodoform (CHI 3 ) during oxidative treatment of iodide-containing drinking waters can be responsible for taste and odor problems. I-THMs are formed by reactions of hypoiodous acid (HOI) with natural organic matter. HOI is quickly formed from naturally occurring iodide (I - ) by oxidation with ozone, chlorine, or chloramine. The kinetics of reactions of HOI with organic model compounds as well as the resulting CHI 3 formation were measured. Substituted phenols, phenol, and, to a smaller extent, α-methyl carbonyl compounds were found to be reactive toward HOI and also to yield CHI 3 . Resorcinol ( m -hydroxyphenol) had the highest yield of CHI 3 . The kinetics of I-THM formation were also measured in natural waters which were oxidatively treated with ozone, chlorine, or chloramine. When ozone was used, no I-THMs were detected and ≥90% of I - was transformed to IO 3 - . Chlorine led to the formation of both IO 3 - and I-THMs. With increasing chlorine doses, the CHI 3 formation decreased, whereas IO 3 - formation, as well as the formation of classical THMs such as chloroform, increased. In chloramination processes, I-THMs (especially CHI 3 ) were the main products. The CHI 3 formation in the oxidation of natural waters increased in the order O 3 < Cl 2 < NH 2 Cl.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
