Identification of organic halogen products

Approximately two million tons of chlorine are used annually in this country for processing pulp and paper materials and for treating potable waters, cooling waters, waste waters, and other waters of environmental concern (White 1976). Organic halogen products are formed in these processes (Bellar et al. 1974; Brownlee and Strachan 1976; Glaze et al. 1973; Glaze and Henderson 1975; Glaze et al. 1976; Jolley 1973, 1975, 1976; Jolley et al. 1976; Keith 1976; Rogers and Keith 1976; Stevens et al. 1976). Thus there is considerable potential for adverse environmental effects to occur
