Total organic carbon (TOC) has become an important water quality analysis tool for drinking water plants in recent years due to its link to disinfection byproducts (DBPs). TOC alone is not harmful, but upon its reaction with a disinfectant can produce harmful byproducts. However,TOC’srelevanceindrinkingwaterapp lications is not purely for regulatory compliance of DBP limits or meeting TOC ...
