RESUMO

The present research had for objective to analyze the formation of THM through the use of potassium permanganate, isolated or associate with free chlorine, in the process of pre-oxidation, and, in a second stage, to evaluate the removal efficiency of these by-products through the adsorption in powdered activated carbon followed by conventional treatment. The oxidations of solutions contend humic acids and bromides, in diverse dosages had been carried through, analyzing the formation of THM with spectrofotometric and gas chromatography methods. The removal of by-products was carried through with dosages of PAC between 10,0 and 150,00 mg/L and dosages of coagulant and pH value determined experimentally for each one of them. The gotten results, for the two methods of determination, had shown that there wasn t significant formation of THM when the oxidation was carried through only by the potassium permanganate and that, with the joint use of the two oxidants, it had an average reduction of 30 % in the formation when compared with the exclusive use of free chlorine use. The treatment process showed efficient for the highest dosages of PAC, adjusting the quality of the final water in the effective regulations
