Therefore, the upgrade of water treatment plants (WTPs) to meet the new standards may be necessary. The objective of this study is to assess approaches for enhancing conventional WTPs to minimize the formation of these just regulated DBPs. Three key strategies are identified: (1) enhanced precursor removal; (2) alternative disinfection/preoxidation and (3) removal of already-formed DBP. The advantages and disadvantages of such strategies are discussed, considering the formation of other emerging, unregulated DBPs. Guidelines are presented to select the most appropriate treatment trains that are proposed to upgrade the conventional WTPs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52296,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Environmental Science and Health","volume":"39 ","pages":"Article 100547"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2468584424000175/pdfft?md5=c4398ad463f6b6c55871ba142d4edac4&pid=1-s2.0-S2468584424000175-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140271232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review focuses on health risks associated with disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in drinking water, emanating primarily from treated wastewater. Emerging nitrogenous, carbonaceous DBPs, and iodine-containing species present health concerns, but regulations predominantly target conventional DBPs. The application of nanotechnology in wastewater treatment holds promise for both enhanced treatment efficiency and potential energy savings. Nanotechnology offers a transformative solution, displaying efficacy in addressing DBP challenges. Applications in adsorption, membrane filtration, and catalytic degradation underscore nanomaterial versatility, holding promise for revolutionizing water treatment. Nanoparticles exhibit remarkable adsorption efficiency, membrane filtration benefits from modified membranes, and catalytic degradation processes employing nanoparticles show promise. This paper provides a concise summary of nanotechnology's application in the removal of DBPs from water, serving as a reference for scientists and environmental experts.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52296,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Environmental Science and Health","volume":"38 ","pages":"Article 100545"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140031208","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
