Article Synopsis
- - Fungi, particularly dormant spores of Aspergillus sp., can produce off-flavour compounds called haloanisoles (HAs) in drinking water by O-methylating 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) into 2,4,6-trichloroanisole (2,4,6-TCA).
- - There is a strong linear relationship between the amount of 2,4,6-TCP and the resulting formation of 2,4,6-TCA, indicating that more precursor leads to more product.
- - Factors like metal ions and natural organic matter can affect this O-methylation process, with certain treatments (like NHCl
