Effects of Assimilable Organic Carbon and Free Chlorine on Bacterial Growth in Drinking Water
Assimilable organic carbon (AOC) is one of the most important factors affecting the re-growth of microorganisms in drinking water. High AOC concentrations result in biological instability, but disinfection kills microbes to ensure the safety of drinking water. Free chlorine is an important oxidizing...
