Research Abstract |
NDMA concentration in river water and groundwater in Tokyo was examined to show the range of NDMA concentration in drinking water sources. Ultraviolet light at different wavelengths was irradiated against NDMA solution. The result indicated that decay rate differs at different wavelengths, and that co-existing matters including dissolved organic matter and nitrate deteriorate the decay rate of NDMA. Moreover, UV-irradiated NDMA solutions were subjected to chloramination, resulting in no significant reformation of NDMA. Results of this study indicated that UV irradiation is effective as a treatment process against NDMA.
