Analyseur de carbone organique total(COT). La matière organique présente dans l'eau est susceptible d’être dégradée et halogénée afin de réagir avec le chlore pour former des trihalométhanes(THM). Le COT est une mesure qui traduit bien la présence de cette matière organique. L'analyseur de COT permet : a) De mesurer les précurseurs des sous-produits de désinfection; b) D'optimiser le dosage de produits chimiques visant à contrôler la matière organique(p. ex., permanganate de potassium et charbon activé en poudre). 5, record 2, French, - analyseur%20de%20carbone%20organique%20total
