This study aimed to investigate the performance of three full-scale long-time water treatment plants with influent from Taihu Lake for the removal of natural organic matter (NOM) and assimilable organic carbon (AOC), emphasizing on the processes of pre- and post-ozonation and biological activated carbon filtration (BACF). High-performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) separation, hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity resin fractionation and excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectroscopy were applied to determine NOM fraction variation in purification processes and their relationships with AOC. The results indicated that NOM fractions with high hydrophilicity (NHPI) and lower molecular weight (1 kDa - 10 kDa) likely contributed to the majority of AOC. The advanced water treatment processes behaved negative removals of AOC since the BACF with long-time operation introduced large amounts of AOC precursors and could cause drastic rebound of AOC upon chlorination disinfection. Finally, during exposure to ozone, the formation rate of AOC showed a linear relationship with UV254 and total fluorescence intensity (TFI) and each regional fluorescence intensity (RFI) with slight interference by the presence of particulate organic matter (POM). This study provides useful information for variation of NOM and its associated bio-availability during conventional and advanced processes in full-scale water treatment plants. |
