Since the discovery of chlorinated byproducts in drinking water in 1974, research for understanding the types and distributions of natural organic matter in water, its reactivity, human exposure to byproducts through ingestion with drinking water, as well as inhalation and dermal contacts during showering, bathing, swimming in chlorinated pools and cooking, risk potentials of various byproducts, kinetics of byproducts formation, epidemiological and toxicological evidence, effects of different factors on byproducts formation and minimization of cost have been continuing. However, minimizing human health risks from exposure to disinfection byproducts and lowering costs of water supply systems have been a challenge to the research community. In this book, complexities in controlling different parameters, modeling byproducts formation and framework for multi-criteria decision-making have been discussed in details. This book has offered significant improvement toward the direction of risk-based decision-making; thus, will be of interest to the research communities.
