Functions of Natural Organic Matter in Changing Environment

Abstract

Monitoring of the various forms of natural organic matter (NOM) content (dissolved organic carbon (DOC), biodegradable organic carbon (BDOC), assimilable organic carbon (AOC)) and changes of these characteristics after the different water purification stages has been carried out in Dnieper river at different seasons. Maximum BDOC value was reached in May 2010 and was 4.1 mg/L. It has been recommended to use a rational combination of oxidation processes (ozonation) with following coagulation with the use of pressure reagent flotation and enhanced posttreatment on the biologically active carbon to produce the biologically stable water from the polluted source.
