ENG- Potabilization aims to ensure the quality of drinking water, access to which has been considered a fundamental right since 2010. However, there are still some unknowns behind the entire process that hinder its optimization. One of these is understanding the role played by dissolved organic matter as one of the main precursors of disinfection byproducts, a family of emerging contaminants that has come into the spotlight over the past few years, primarily due to their toxic effects.
To minimize exposure to these contaminants, it is essential to have strategies that prevent their formation and maximize their removal. The main challenge lies precisely in identifying which characteristics of dissolved organic matter indicate its reactivity to disinfection processes, which will trigger the generation of byproducts. This thesis evaluates the application of different advanced characterization techniques such as size exclusion chromatography, fluorescence, and high-resolution mass spectrometry to deepen the understanding of the properties of this highly complex matrix with the aim to understand how it is removed by the various treatment processes involved in potabilization and to propose different parameters that can predict the formation of these emerging contaminants
