Formation of bromate is of a great concern whenever ozonation is used for treating bromide-containing water ever since bromate was classified as a potential carcinogen. This study examines the impact of dose ozone on the bromated formation in groundwater rich in bromide and to estimate the health risks to population due to ingestion. Results of estimated excess cancer risk and chemical toxicity risk to population due to ingestion of treated water were presented and discussed.
