Drinking water (Environmental aspectsMicroscope and microscopy (UsageChlorine chemistry is complex. Under certain common conditions, chlorinated compounds can react with polyethylene pipes causing premature failures (bursts/leaks). It is important to understand this degradation mechanism in order to prevent ...
studies on the long-term health impacts of drinking chlorinated water would be valuable, we conclude that access to chlorinated water did not substantially impact child gut microbiome development in this setting, supporting the use of chlorination to increase global access to safe drinking water. ...
21% increase in the risk of contracting bladder cancer and a 38% increase in the risk of rectal cancer. "I am quite convinced, based on this study, that there is an association between cancer and chlorinated water.", says Robert D. Morris of the Medical College of Wisconsin inMilwaukee,...
However, recent research has focused on the possible hazard of chlorinated swimming pools. Chlorine reacts with organic compounds found in the water, giving way to the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs). DBPs enter the human body by water ingestion, inhalation and dermal absorption. The...
Additive effects of chlorinated biocides and water temperature on fish in thermal effluents with emphasis on the Great Lakes - Cooke, SchreerCooke,S. J.,Schreer,J. F.Additive effects of chlorinated biocides and water temperature on fish in thermal effluents with emphasis on the Great Lakes. ...
It is an increasingly common practice that drinking water distribution systems (DWDSs) may have to deliver new-quality water after decades of service. However, the so-called transition effects when old DWDSs receive new water remain unclear. In this 2

The effects of distilled, ozonated (12mgL1) and chlorinated (100mgL1) water treatments on inactivation of Escherichia coli and Listeria innocua inoculated on lettuce, spinach, and parsley and on some chemical characteristics (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, ascorbic acid, and total phenolic contents ...
In this research, chemical kinetic reaction of the activated carbon for free chlorine removal was studied, which exhibited the first order kinetic reaction performance. A relationship between the rate of chlorinated water flowing through the activated carbon, and the free chlorine (ClO~()) ...
