Abstract:Dissolved organic matter (DOM) widely exists as important photoreactive soluble material in natural waters,and plays an important role in the ecological carbon cycling.A variety of reactive species,such as triplet-excited DOM,singlet oxygen,hydroxyl radicals could be generated during photo-transformation of DOM,and pose significant effect on the photolysis process of heavy metals and organic pollutants.This paper reviews the progress in the generating pathways of major reactive species photoinduced by DOM and the influence of DOM on the photo-transformation of various pollutants in recent years.Some recommendations to the future research were briefly outlined.
