The overall aim of the project was to identify treatment strategies for dealing with elevated organic carbon levels in terms of organic load reduction and floc characteristics at elevated loads, and specifically to identify: the conditions under which conventional and alternative processes are suitable for use in the treatment of waters with a higher organic load, the effect of organic content on floc size, structure, strength, growth and break up, the effects of changes in floc structure on removal in physiochemical processes.
Microscale sealed vessel pyrolysis is a promising new approach to NOM characterization. This technique promotes the reduction of polar NOM moieties and significantly increases the yield of GC amenable products (Greenwood et al., 2006; ...
Natural organic matter (NOM) generally significantly influences water treatment processes such as coagulation, oxidation, adsorption, and membrane filtration.
This monograph provides comprehensive coverage of technologies which integrate adsorption and biological processes in water and wastewater treatment.
