Reduction of haloacetic acids by Fe(super0): implications for treatment and fate

Article Abstract:

Haloacetic acids (HAAs), which are byproducts of the chlorination of wastewater and water, are formed from a reaction between hypochlorous acid and organic matter found in wastewater and water. The reactions of Fe(super 0) with trichloroacetic acid, tribromoacetic acid, chlorodibroacetic acid and bromodichloroacetic acid were examined in batch experiments. Some HAAs may be carcinogens and pose a risk to the health of consumers.
