dissolved organic compounds
1Dissolved organic carbon — (DOC) is a broad classification for organic molecules of varied origin and composition within aquatic systems. The dissolved fraction of organic carbon is an operational classification. Many researchers use the term dissolved for compounds below… …
2Colored dissolved organic matter — (CDOM) is the optically measurable component of the dissolved organic matter in water. Also known as chromophoric dissolved organic matter, yellow substance, and gelbstoff, CDOM occurs naturally in aquatic environments primarily as a result of… …
3Compounds of oxygen — Water (H2O) is the most familiar oxygen compound The oxidation state f oxygen is −2 in almost all known compounds of oxygen. The oxidation state −1 is found in a few compounds such as peroxides. Compounds containing oxygen in other oxidation… …

6Compounds of zinc — are chemical compounds containing the element zinc which is a member of the group 12 of the periodic table. The oxidation state of most compounds is the group oxidation state of +2. Zinc may be classified as a post transition main group element… …
7Total organic carbon — (TOC) is the amount of carbon bound in an organic compound and is often used as a non specific indicator of water quality or cleanliness of pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment. A typical analysis for TOC measures both the total carbon present… …
8Dioxins and dioxin-like compounds — (DLC)[1] are by products of various industrial processes, and are commonly regarded as highly toxic compounds that are environmental pollutants and persistent organic pollutants (POPs).[2] They include:[1][3] Polychlorinated dibenzo p dioxins… …
9Septic drain field — Septic drain fields, also called leach fields or leach drains are used to remove contaminants and impurities from the liquid that emerges from the septic tank. A septic tank, the septic drain field, and the associated piping compose a complete… …
