Drowning in disinfection byproducts? Assessing swimming pool water.
Disinfection is mandatory for swimming pools: public pools are usually disinfected by gaseous chlorine or sodium hypochlorite and cartridge filters; home pools typically use stabilized chlorine. These methods produce a variety of disinfection byproducts (DBPs), such as trihalomethanes (THMs), which are regulated carcinogenic DBPs in drinking water that have been detected in the blood and breath...
متن کاملDisinfection byproducts in swimming pool water in Sanandj, Iran
The present study aimed to determine the concentrations of several disinfection byproducts (DBPs), including trihalomethanes (THMs), haloacetic acids (HAAs), and haloacetonitriles (HANs), in the public and private swimming pools in Sanandaj, Iran (n=16). Correlations between DBP levels with water quality parameters (free chlorine, pH, total organic carbon, temperature, number of swimme...
متن کاملDisinfection by-product formation of UV treated swimming pool water
Water samples from 3 indoor swimming pool facilities were tested to evaluate UV-induced effects on swimming pool water chemistry. Concentration change of several DBPs was investigated in experiments including medium pressure UV treatment with and without chlorine and post-UV chlorination. Post-UV chlorine consumption increased, dose-dependently, with UV treatment dose. A clear absence of trihal...
متن کاملAutomated Drowning Detection and Security in Swimming Pool
Swimming pool surveillance systems plays an essential role in safeguarding the premises. The main purpose of this project is to design a safety swimming pool. We present in this paper human movement approach to detection of drowning incidents in swimmingpools at the earliest possible stage.This is done by preventing the children from drowning in the swimming pool by lifting the iron plate.The p...
متن کاملAssessing the genotoxicity of two commonly occurring byproducts of water disinfection: Chloral hydrate and bromal hydrate.
Water disinfection treatments result in the formation of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) that have been linked to adverse human health outcomes including higher incidence of bladder and colorectal cancer. However, data about the genotoxicity of DBPs is limited to only a small fraction of compounds. Chloral hydrate (CH) and bromal hydrate (BH) are two trihaloacetaldehydes commonly detected in dis...
