Data were gathered on the presence of disinfection by-products (DBPs) in drinking water and on the impact of treatment processes on DBP formation and control. Thirty-five water treatment facilities were selected to provide a broad range of source water qualities and treatment processes. Trihalomethanes were the largest class of DBPs detected (on a weight basis) in this study, with haloacetic acids being the next most significant DBP fraction. Formaldehyde and acetaldehyde, by-products of ozonation, were also demonstrated to be produced by chlorination. Cyanogen chloride was found to be preferentially produced in chloraminated water. Includes 36 references, tables, figures, photos.
