Trihalomethanes such as chloroform, dichlorobromo-
methane, dibromochloromethane, and bromoform are formed
when natural water is chlorinated in water treatment.
This investigation explores the use of ozone to remove
organic precursors from natural water, thus decreasing
trihalomethane formation potential.
The data suggest a mechanism involving formation of
secondary precursors after prolonged contact with ozone,
suggesting that trihalomethane precursors may be minimized
by using low doses of ozone and short contact time.
