While chlorine
disinfectants have proved effective in controlling many
microorganisms in public drinking water supplies, they react with
natural organic and inorganic matter in source water and
distribution systems to form Disinfectanct By Products, (DBPs).
Results from toxicology studies have shown several DBPs (e.g.,
bromodichloromethane, bromoform, chloroform, dichloroacetic acid,
and bromate) to be carcinogenic in laboratory animals. Other DBPs
(e.g., chlorite, bromodichloromethane, and certain haloacetic acids)
have also been shown to cause adverse reproductive or developmental
effects in laboratory animals.
