Abstract

Correction for ‘Emerging investigators series: comparing the inherent reactivity of often-overlooked aqueous chlorinating and brominating agents toward salicylic acid’ by Matthew A. Broadwater et al., Environ. Sci.: Water Res. Technol., 2018, 4, 369–384.


In the abstract of the article, “bromination” and “chlorination” were inadvertently swapped in the sentence: “Experiments in which buffer concentrations were varied indicate that phosphate buffers can enhance rates of SA bromination but not chlorination”. Consistent with the results presented in the paper, this sentence should read: “Experiments in which buffer concentrations were varied indicate that phosphate buffers can enhance rates of SA chlorination, but not bromination”.
