Natural Organic Matter and Disinfection By-Products Characterization and Control in Drinking Water

There are many by-products of water disinfection that are still not fully understood and can be potentially harmful. In this volume all the current research in this area is discussed, along with an examination of the role of NOM (natural organic matter) and its relationship to DBP (disinfection by-product) formation and control in drinking water. Understanding the relationship of NOM to DBP may well lead to new techniques for analyzing and treating water and enable reasonable choices to be made for source-water protection, treatment plant process optimization, and distribution system operation to control DBP's.Barrett, Sylvia E. is the author of 'Natural Organic Matter and Disinfection By-Products Characterization and Control in Drinking Water' with ISBN 9780841236769 and ISBN 0841236763.
