Abstract
Excitation-emission matrix fluorescence spectroscopy (EEM) can be used to characterize organic matter present in water samples. When excited, the intensity of fluorescence emitted can be used to generate a representation of organic matter makes it possible to localize fluorescence centers related to particular groups, which can ‘fingerprint’ a sample. The technique is applicable to wastewater samples to identify contributors of refractory organic matter; for which an appropriate pretreatment program can be instituted to optimize the overall operations of the wastewater disinfection process. This article provides a case study of this innovative application of EEM, which has not been previously reported.
