Algae as Sources of Trihalomethane Precursors
The organic substances most frequently mentioned as precursors of trihalomethanes in public water supplies are the naturally occurring humates found in all surface waters and in many groundwaters. However, laboratory data have shown that algae—both their biomass and their extracellular products—also react readily with chlorine to produce THMs.
