Biological Bromate Reduction in the O3 -STEP Filter: Mechanism and Relationship with Denitrification

Bromate is a possible human carcinogen that does not naturally exist in surface or groundwater bodies. Its formation mostly results from ozonating bromide-containing water during wastewater treatment or drinking water production. Bromate is difficult to remove from water due to its high solubility and low reactivity in the aqueous environment;...
