Abstract:Emerging contaminants (ECs) are increasingly discharged into the aquatic environment and cannot be removed by conventional water treatment processes. The detection of various disinfection byproducts (DBPs) originating from ECs as possible precursors is challenging. Herein, liquid chromatography coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry was used for the suspect and nontarget screening of ECs and DBPs simultaneously in the effluent of drinking water treatment plants and distribution systems. Forty-one ECs an… Show more
