UV Absorption Spectral Characteristics of Dissolved Organic Matter in Fen River of Taiyuan in China

摘要

UV absorption is one of the important properties of chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM). The UV absorption spectral characteristics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) were analyzed to infer the main components in Taiyuan urban section. Based on the UV absorption spectral characteristics of the CDOM, and relationship between DOC concentration and UV absorbance, conclusions were drawn: (1) Content of DOM in the treated section was at a low degree and constituent.The anthropogenic pollution accounted for a major role. (2)DOM constituents in Taiyuan section in May, July and November were relatively simple. The molecular structure of mainly CDOM was simple with mostly two or three species among the hydroxyl, carboxyl and phenyl. However, DOM constituent in September was more complicated, there were more non-fluorescent substances besides CDOM.
