Approximately 77 percent of the freshwater used in the United
States comes from surface-water sources and is subject to natural
organic matter contamination according to the United States
Geological Survey. This presents a distinct challenge to water
treatment engineers. An essential resource to the latest
breakthroughs in the characterization, treatment and removal of
natural organic matter (NOM) from drinking water, Natural Organic
Matter in Waters: Characterization and Treatment Methods focuses on
advance filtration and treatment options, and processes for
reducing disinfection byproducts. Based on the author's years of
research and field experience, this book begins with the
characterization of NOM including: general parameters, isolation
and concentration, fractionation, composition and structural
analysis and biological testing. This is followed by removal
methods such as inorganic coagulants, polyelectrolytes and
composite coagulants. Electrochemical and membranes removal methods
such as: electrocoagulation, electrochemical oxidation,
microfiltration and ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and membrane
fouling.
