Size Exclusion Chromatography Investigation of the Photocatalytic Degradation of Natural Organic Matter

摘要

Natural organic matter (NOM) is ubiquitous in natural waters. Although NOM is in itself harmless, it is a source of unwanted disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in drinking water treatment, including trihalomethanes. As a source of DBPs, it is critical to understand the behavior of NOM in established and emerging water treatment steps.
