Description

An evaluation of the carcinogenic risk to humans posed by the consumption of chlorinated drinking water, by two chemicals used in the chlorination of drinking-water, a number of halogenated by-products formed when chlorine interacts with organic matter in water and by a selection of other halogenated compounds found in drinking-water. Chlorination was selected for evaluation because of its widespread use and because potentially carcinogenic by-products have been measured in chlorinated water. The book also includes a separate monograph evaluating the carcinogenic risk posed by exposure to cobalt and cobalt compounds.
