Advanced DBP formation & speciation
Just a heads-up—this section is still a work in progress! I’ll be revising and expanding it soon to make sure it’s as useful as possible. Curious about what’s already done or currently in the works? Check the changelog for updates.
Our basic water quality chapter introduced the concept of modeling disinfection byproduct (DBP) formation potential. Now, we take a significant step further to address the modeling of specific formation pathways for various classes of regulated DBPs — like Trihalomethanes (THMs) and Haloacetic Acids (HAAs) — and even, where possible, the individual chemical species within those classes (e.g., chloroform, bromoform, dichloroacetic acid).
This level of detail is often necessary for utilities facing stringent DBP compliance challenges or those needing to understand the impact of specific treatment changes on the DBP profile.
