The increasing occurrence of harmful algae blooms globally poses significant challenges to
water management. In water treatment utilities, coagulation is the first treatment process of …

NOM deteriorates water quality by forming taste, clarification, colour, and odour problems. It
also increases coagulant and chlorine consumption which can initiate disinfection by …

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of natural organic matter (NOM) including
humic acid (HA) and fulvic acid (FA), intracellular organic matter (IOM) extracted from …

Disinfection by-products (DBPs) formed upon water treatment is an emerging issue
worldwide. While monitoring of DBP precursors can easily be achieved for high specific UV …

Disinfection is an important part of the drinking water treatment process. Disinfection by-
products (DBPs), produced during the disinfection process, can be a threat to human health …

Algal organic matter (AOM) from seasonal algal blooms may be an important precursor of
disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in drinking water. This paper presents the effect of ferrate (VI) …

Fresh water, despite being a renewable natural resource, is currently limited and scarce. Its
necessity for life and economic growth has led to permanent conflicts of interest. Social and …

Algal organic matter (AOM) is considered to be threatening for the consumption of
disinfectants and the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) during the disinfection …

Algal cells and algal organic matter (AOM) are a source of high dissolved organic carbon
(DOC) and nitrogen (DON) concentrations. This poses a possible health risk due to their …

In drinking water sources, seasonal algal blooms have augmented greatly dur-ing the last
decades following the elevated temperature and nutrient loading in surface water because …
