title: [Halogenated organic compounds in swimming pool water].
abstract: 18 different swimming pool waters in the Bonn-Rhein-Sieg area were analysed for trihalogenmethanes, halogenated acetic acids, 2,2-dichloropropionic acid, dihalogenacetonitriles and chloral hydrate. Most substances mentioned above were determined in almost every sample reaching total concentrations up to 538 micrograms/l. Considering the results one can see that some of the main pollutants are polar organic compounds like di- and trichloroacetic acid as well as chloral hydrate.
