| Abstract | Dissolved organic matter (DOM) which is ubiquitous in environment shows various properties with its origin. Many studies have been carried out widely to characterize physicochemical properties of DOM derived from different origins. The reason why DOM is important in environment is that DOM is known as significant factor which affects behavior of trace pollutants (by redox reaction and hydrophobic adsorption) rather than it could be a contaminant by itself. South Korean government had set a goal for gradual increase in incineration rate of domestic solid wastes up to 30% until 2011. Therefore, generation of incineration residue would be expected to increase constantly. In South Korea, almost of incineration residues are buried with domestic solid wastes. Largely, solid waste incineration residues consist of fly ash and bottom ash containing significant amounts of trace metals and POPs (i.e.Dioxins, PAHs etc.). Hence, leachabilities of trace pollutants in MSW incineration residues are expected to increase. The objective of this study is to characterize DOM derived from leachate of incineration residues contained in lysimeters by fractionation method and to examine the interaction between DOM fractions and trace pollutants (Cu2+, pyrene) by fluorescence analysis. |
