Abstract

Language:

This study elucidates the recent trends in the formation, prevention, and removal of N-nitrosamines such as N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) from wastewater or drinking water. Reports are rife on the occurrence of NDMA in areas such as amine degradation during postcombustion CO2 capture (PCC), chlorinated/chloraminated and ozonated drinking water, smoked or cooked foods, personal care, tobacco, and pharmaceutical products. The major routes responsible for the formation of these compounds are analyzed, alongside a discussion of their health implications and regulatory measures. The methodologies for monitoring and mitigating the presence of N-nitrosamines are explored, highlighting both chemical and physical removal techniques. The findings emphasize the need for novel treatment approaches and stricter regulations to minimize the risk of N-nitrosamines in both wastewater and drinking water systems. This work serves as a comprehensive resource for researchers and policymakers aiming to address the challenges of preventing and removing N-nitrosamines from various water sources.
