This study evaluated user preferences among three alternative in-home water treatment technologies suitable for households relying on trucked water in El Paso County, Texas, which is on the border with Mexico. The three technologies were: chlorination of household storage tanks, small-scale batch chlorination, and point-of-use ultraviolet disinfection. Fifteen households used each of the three ...

Poly(p-N-chlorostyrenesulphonamide) synthesized via direct chlorination of poly[(p-styrene) sulphonamide], can be used for selective chlorination of aromatic compounds. Aromatic rings of the anisole, p-xylene, ethylbenzene and toluene are chlorinated with good yields. The polymer can be recovery, rechlorinated and reused several times.

Abstract Chlorine disinfection has been reported to be ineffective in controlling RO membrane biofouling some projects. Feed water temperature is a crucial factor the formation of biofouling. It positive impact on wide application process ascertain whether chlorine can alleviate at low temperatures. In this study, effects chlorination feed (10 °C) were investigated by lab-scale apparatus. The f...

Background: Oxidation of apolipoprotein A-I by myeloperoxidase has been proposed to deprive HDL of its cardioprotective effects. Result: Tyrosine 192 is the major site of chlorination in apoA-I in both plasma and lesion HDL isolated from humans. Conclusion: Chlorination of apolipoprotein A-I by myeloperoxidase generates a dysfunctional form of HDL in vivo. Significance: Quantifying apolipoprote...

The authors conducted a population-based case-control study of 1,068 incident leukemia cases and 5,039 controls aged 20–74 years during 1994–1997 to examine the association between exposure to drinking water chlorination disinfection by-products and adult leukemia risk in Canada. Residence and drinking water source histories and data from municipal water supplies were used to estimate individua...

Electron-rich aromatic C-H bonds undergo regioselective chlorination and bromination in the presence of CuX(2), LiX (X = Cl, Br) and molecular oxygen. Preliminary mechanistic insights suggest that the bromination and chlorination reactions proceed by different pathways.

shortage of water has been a great consideration since ancient times in iran. the yearly average atmospheric precipitation in iran is around 250 mm considering the total area of the country, it can be estimated that our share of water is 420 x 109 per year. due to evaporation and run off to the sea through rivers and infliction it has been estimated the available water can not be more than 120 ...

This paper deals with control of bulking by chlorination in a laboratory-scale (15l/ d) biological nutrient removal system. Bulking was caused by filamentous organisms characteristic of nutrient removal systems, i.e. Type 0092, Microthrix parvicella and Type 0914. Over a continuous dosing period of 19 d, at 8 mgCl2 /gMLSS.d the diluted sludge volume index (DSVI) decreased from 230 to 48 ml/g. N...
