Bromate (BrO3-)
Disinfection byproduct
Oxidized form of bromide (Br-), a component found naturally in many source waters
Forms in ozone (O3) disinfection process
Br- + O3 BrO3-
Possible carcinogen and monitored by EPA
MCL of 10 ppb

Bromate Influential Parameters Proportional to: bromide and ozone dose
Influenced by:
pH:
Increases in pH, increased bromate formation
Most studies considered pH values between 6.0 and 8.5
Temperature:
Increases in temperature, increased bromate formation
Increases in reaction kinetics
Organics:
Increases in organic content, decreased bromate formation

Goal and Objectives Goal
Quantify the bromate formation in the disinfection process and identify operational strategies to minimize bromate formation
Objectives Determine bromide concentrations in the source waters
Study bromate formation in the ozonation process
Evaluate the impact of operational parameters on bromate formation
Determine controlling options and procedures for reducing bromate formation

Conclusions Bromate formation is a concern at the Moorhead WTP
The highest bromate concentrations occurred in the summer months
Variations in bromate formation from day to day are influenced by the operation of the treatment plant
Bromate formation can be controlled through changes in operational control methods
