[La autodepuración es un] proceso natural de purificación de una masa de agua, en movimiento o en reposo, en virtud del cual se disminuye el contenido de bacterias y se satisface la mayor parte de la dbo [demanda bioquímica de oxígeno;] la materia orgánica que contiene es estabilizada y el contenido de oxígeno disuelto vuelve a su concentración normal. [...] La autodepuración o purificación natural que tiene lugar en el agua receptora depende de su caudal o volumen, su contenido de oxígeno y su capacidad para reoxigenarse por sí misma. [...] tiene lugar en cuatro etapas que se conocen como: zonas de degradación, de descomposición, de recuperación y de agua limpia. 2, record 1, Spanish, - autopurificaci%C3%B3n
