Partial photooxidation of micropollutants may lead to various degradation intermediates, obviously affecting disinfection byproducts (DBPs) formation during the post-chlorination process. The photooxidation of atrazine (ATZ) in aqueous solutions with low-pressure mercury UV lamps in UV, UV/H 2 O 2  and UV/TiO 2  treatment system and the formation of chlorinated disinfection byproducts (DBPs) during subsequent chlorination processes including dichloroacetic acid (DCAA), trichloroacetic acid (TCAA), 1,1,1-trichloro-2-propanone (TCP), trichloromethane (TCM) and chloropicrin (CHP) were investigated in this study. The effect of solution pH on the oxidation pathway of ATZ in three UV photooxidation treatment process and the impact of photooxidation on the DBPs formations were assessed. Based on UPLC-ESI–MS/MS analyses, identification of main oxidation intermediates was performed and the plausible degradation pathways of ATZ in photooxidation system were proposed, indicating that photooxidation of ATZ in UV/H 2 O 2  and UV/TiO 2  process system was significantly pH-dependent processes. Dichloroacetic acid (DCAA), trichloroacetic acid (TCAA), 1,1,1-trichloro-2-propanone (TCP), trichloromethane (TCM) and chloropicrin (CHP) were detected in photooxidized ATZ solutions. Compared to the other three DBPs, TCM and TCP were the main DBPs formed. The DBPs formations were greatly promoted in oxidized ATZ solutions. Solution pH and UV irradiation time exhibited obvious impact on the DBPs formation on the basis of DBP species. The variation tendency of DBPs observed relates to the combustion of ATZ in photooxidation system and the production oxidation intermediates.
