Scientists have uncovered a new chemical compound lurking in U.S. drinking water, potentially exposing one in five Americans to an unidentified health risk. Researchers at the University of Arkansas have identified chloronitramide anion, a previously unknown byproduct of water disinfection that could have implications for public health, according to a new study published Thursday in Science. The newly identified compound, chloronitramide anion (chemically expressed as Cl–N–NO2−), is an end product of inorganic chloramine decomposition. ​While its toxicity remains unknown, researchers are concerned about its prevalence and similarity to other toxic compounds https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/researchers-find-unknown-chemical-drinking-water-posing-potential-human-health-concern
