Ratios of the gas transfer rate constants of oxygen to the haloforms CHC13, CHC12Br, CHC1Br2 and CHBr3 were measured and used to calculate an aqueous half-life range for each compound. The calculated half-lives suggest that production and release of haloforms as a result of chlorination of wastewater should not cause these materials to accumulate in the aquatic environment.
