Short-term disinfection byproduct (DBP) formation was impacted by bromide when the water was in contact with chlorine for times less than 4 hours. An increase in the bromide:total organic carbon (TOC) ratio resulted in an increase of the percentage of brominated Trihalomethanes (THMs) and Haloacetic Acids (HAAs). However, the rate of TTHM kinetics (mass and molar basis) were similar within the short-term, despite increasing the bromide:TOC ratio for a given water. The dihaloacetic acids (DHAAs) and trihaloacetic acids (THAA) short-term kinetic rates were different, where DHAAs exhibited faster kinetics for times less than 1 hour. Also, bromine's greater halogenation efficiency and bromine's influence upon the mass yield (higher molecular weight) led to the formation of significant amounts of brominated species on a mass basis within the short-term. DHAAs were formed due to chloramines, but the prechlorine reaction consumed very fast-reacting (5 minutes) DHAA precursors, which would otherwise be formed if chloramines were only used. For one water some of the slow-reacting (5-20 days) DHAA precursors were consumed in the prechlorine reaction, whereas for the other two waters the long-term yields and kinetics did not differ for prechlorinated and nonprechlorinated natural organic matter (NOM).
