“…In addition, bromamines have been shown to be more reactive with DOM than their chlorinated counterparts, and are suspected of forming greater concentrations of DBPs (Allard, Cadee, et al, 2018; Duirk & Valentine, 2007; Heeb et al, 2017; Mensah et al, 2022; Yang et al, 2014). Although few studies have investigated the role of brominated amines in DBP formation (Criquet & Allard, 2021), a recent investigation found that bromamines can yield substantial levels of bromoform when exposed to more reactive DOM associated with aromatic and phenolic moieties (Mensah et al, 2023). Although there is a growing body of research elucidating bromamine formation and decay mechanisms as well as kinetics in laboratory pure water (Allard, Cadee, et al, 2018; Brodfuehrer et al, 2022; Mensah et al, 2022; Wahman et al, 2017), more research is needed to evaluate the impact bromide has on the stability of a chloramines in natural waters and the ability of kinetic models to predict NH 2 Cl decomposition.…”
