The invention discloses a method for monitoring the concentration of a
water body disinfection by-product DBPs based on
electron donating ability, and belongs to the technical field of
environmental engineering.The method comprises the steps that S1, a
water body sample is collected, first pretreatment is conducted, and the EDC value is measured through an
ABTS + free radical reduction decolorization method; s2, carrying out second pretreatment on the
water body sample subjected to the first pretreatment, and measuring the concentrations of
trihalomethane and haloacetic acid in the water body sample by utilizing a gas chromatographic method; s3, by taking the EDC value as an independent variable and the
trihalomethane concentration and the haloacetic
acid concentration as dependent variables, establishing a first prediction model for predicting the
trihalomethane concentration based on the EDC value and a second prediction model for predicting the haloacetic
acid concentration based on the EDC value; and S4, predicting the concentration of trihalomethane and the concentration of haloacetic acid by using the first prediction model and the second prediction model based on the EDC value of the target to-be-detected water body sample. The method solves the problems that a traditional DBPs detection method is long in time consumption and complex in operation.
