Experimental evaluation showed chlorocyanurates elevate DBP toxicity in drinking water, highlighting water quality concerns.

This research investigates the formation of disinfection byproducts from chlorocyanurates during drinking water disinfection.
Evaluated multiple chlorocyanurate formulations
Analyzed chlorine-to-cyanuric acid ratio effects
Compared toxicities of chlorocyanurates to conventional chlorine
Chlorocyanurates produced 10-50% lower regulated DBPs than chlorine
Increased bromine incorporation in DBPs by 50-200%
Enhanced dichloroacetonitrile formation linked to trichloramine from chlorocyanurates

Adusei et al. (2025) studied this question.
