| Drinking Water Impact | DURING CHLORINATION WATER TREATMENT, BROMOBENZENE CAN BE
FORMED IN SMALL QUANTITIES HAS BEEN FOUND IN FINISHED WATER IN
LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER AREA
EFFL: ORGANIC CONSTITUENTS OF SECONDARY EFFLUENTS FROM
PUBLICLY-OWNED TREATMENT WORKS IN ILLINOIS WERE ANALYZED BY
CAPILLARY GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY-MASS SPECTROSCOPY. EMPHASIS WAS
GIVEN TO SECONDARY EFFLUENTS FROM MUNICIPAL TREATMENT PLANTS
RECEIVING INDUSTRIAL DISCHARGES AS PART OF THE INFLUENT.
BROMOBENZENE WAS DETECTED IN ONE COMPOSITE SAMPLE FROM THE FIRST
MANHOLE DOWNSTREAM OF A TREATMENT PROCESS.
