摘要
The distribution of bromine containing trihalomethanes in the water distribution system of Kuwait has been studied. Total halomethanes in the drinking water averaged 25.6 ± 9.1 μg l-1 with a maximum of 50.5 μg l-1. Average concentrations (μg l-1) of individual compounds were: CHBr3, 13.6 ± 4.6; CHBr2Cl, 8.8 ± 3.7; CHCl2Br, 3.3 ± 1.5. Water from roof top storage tanks contained significantly less halomethanes than that from underground reservoirs. © 1990.
