We present here some works which take place in the particular framework of the study of drinking water treatment of reservoir waters which contain high concentrations of organics, mainly humic substances. Previous studies on coagulation of fulvic acid solutions have proved that the optimal removal of organic matter was reached at acidic pH with 2 mg of ferricion per mg or organic carbon (summarized in this paper). The main question in this study is to know what is the impact of preozonation on the removal of organics by iron (III) coagulation.
