Abstract
: This part is devoted to the environmental applications of excitation-emission spectrofluorimetry (EES): Characterization of chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) in drinking waters, rivers, fog waters, lakes, oceans, leachates, wastewaters, sluge, bioreactor membrane foulants, and soils; characterization of extracellular polymeric substances in sludges; study of interactions between CDOM and organic pollutants in soils; and quantification of organic pollutants in waters and soils. This part includes the pretreatment of samples, and the environmental applications of the technique are discussed, including its application to bioremediation of wastewaters. More than 200 references (focusing mainly on the last 10 years) from all kinds of journals (environment, analytical chemistry, biotechnology) have been carefully revised and included in this part of the article.
