Oxidative treatment of bromide-containing waters: Formation of bromine and its reactions with inorganic and organic compounds - a critical review

Bromide (Br-) is present in all water sources at concentrations ranging from ~10 to >1000 µg L-1 in fresh waters and about 67 mg L-1 in seawater. During oxidative water treatment bromide is oxidized to hypobromous acid/hypobromite (HOBr/OBr-) and other bromine species. A systematic and critic...
