Abstract

Chlorination has been widely used as a disinfection method for control of pathogens in drinking water and wastewater treatment plants. Chlorination disinfection byproducts (DBPs) are formed when organic matter is present in water, and they are harmful to human health. The main groups of compounds formed are trihalomethanes (THMs), haloacetic acids (HAAs) and haloacetonitriles (HANs). Analysis of THMs, HAAs and HANs in water samples has been reported. This paper reviews the various sample preparation methods in use for analysis of THMs, HAAs and HANs in water samples.
