The purpose of this study was to assess the role of natural organic matter (NOM) on disinfection efficacy using two
types of disinfectants (Cl<sub>2</sub> and ClO<sub>2</sub>). B. subtilis spores were used as a surrogate for
monitoring disinfection efficacy.
The role of natural organic matter was tested using two series of experimental assays.
Initially, assays were conducted in ultra-pure buffers waters supplemented with various NOM
extracts. Secondly, confirmation assays were performed on several raw (untreated) surface
waters. Includes 11 references, figures.
