1 mar 2024 · Many emerging chemicals, such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), microplastics, and 1,4-dioxane, have drinking water as the dominant exposure pathway for many...
Persistent and mobile organic substances are those with the highest propensity to be widely distributed in groundwater and thereby, when emitted at low-levels, to contaminate drinking water extraction points and freshwater environments.
20 lip 2022 · Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are organic chemicals that can persist in the environment for a longer period due to their non-biodegradability. The pervasive and bio-accumulative behavior of POPs makes them highly toxic to the environmental species including plants, animals, and humans.
1 mar 2018 · To ensure an appropriate management of potential health risks and uncertainties, many countries have evaluated and implemented strategies to manage TOrC in water bodies. Among implemented strategies, comparable motivations and paradigms can be identified (Bieber et al., 2016).
25 kwi 2014 · Two types of organics are relevant for drinking water treatment (DWT): natural organic matter (NOM) present at the mg/l level and synthetic organic compounds (SOCs), among which individual xenobiotics appear in the range from less than ng/l up to μg/l.
Volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) include solvents and organic chemicals like toluene benzene, styrene, trichloroethylene (TCE) and vinyl chloride, etc., degreasers, adhesives, gasoline additives, and fuel additives (Wehrmann et al. 1996).
