Graphene nanosheets (GNS) such as graphenes and graphene oxides (GOs) have been
widely investigated as next-generation adsorbents in both water and wastewater treatment …

While disinfection provides hygienically safe drinking water, the disinfectants react with
inorganic or organic precursors, leading to the formation of harmful disinfection byproducts …

Uptake and discharge of ballast water by ocean-going ships contribute to the worldwide
spread of aquatic invasive species, with negative impacts on the environment, economies …

Disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in drinking water exhibit considerable adverse health effects;
recent focus is on the brominated disinfection byproducts (Br-DBPs). The chlorination and …

Hypohalous acids (HOX, X= Cl, Br) are produced by activated neutrophils, monocytes,
eosinophils, and possibly macrophages. These oxidants react readily with biological …

Disinfection of drinking water is important to prevent microbial infection and disease.
However, chlorine as a disinfectant is capable of reacting with inorganic and organic …

When a bromide-containing water is treated by the ultraviolet (UV)/chlorine process,
hydroxyl radicals (HOradical dot) and halogen radicals such as Clradical dot or Brradical dot …

Bromate (BrO3–) in drinking water is traditionally seen as an ozonation byproduct from the
oxidation of bromide (Br–), and its formation during chlorination is usually not significant …

Halogenation and oxidation of organic matter in chlorinated and chloraminated water are
typically attributed to the most abundant electrophiles present. This interpretation sometimes …

HOBr, formed via oxidation of bromide by free available chlorine (FAC), is frequently
assumed to be the sole species responsible for generating brominated disinfection …
