Abstract
This research work investigated the effects of chlorination on THMs formation and correlations among chlorine demand and other water quality parameters. Bromo‐substitution was found to interfere with the chlorine competition and affected the formation of CHB2C1 during the higher chlorine dose reaction. A statistical THMs model in terms of chlorine contact time, residual chlorine, TOC and UV254 was successfully developed. COD (and TOC) denoting organics compounds, total count representing microorganism and NH3 (and/or Mn) indicating inorganic ions are the principle factors affecting the chlorine demand.
