Summary: 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 breakthroughs in the characterization, treatment and removal of natural organic matter (NOM) from drinking water, this book focuses on advance filtration and treatment options, and processes for reducing disinfection byproducts. Topics include: characterization of NOM including: general parameters, i
