Abstract |
The literature since 1972 pertaining to wastewater and cooling water chlorination is discussed under the following headings: review papers, chlorinated municipal wastewaters, continuously chlorinated water, intermittently chlorinated water, dechlorination, avoidance, formation of chlorinated organic compounds, aquatic life criteria and application factors, and regulations. Field and laboratory research results support a single criterion of 0.003 mg/l for continuous exposure of freshwater organisms. The former distinction between warmwater and coldwater systems is no longer appropriate; recent data indicate that several freshwater fish species are as sensitive as trout and salmon. The present concern for the formation of chlorinated organics in water and wastewaters is justifiable and the greatest present need is to determine the ecological significance, if any, of these results. |
