Description
Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) is a crucial component in aquatic systems for the natural remediation of metals pollution. Natural organic compounds from DOM provide macromolecules which strongly attract cations such as copper, lead, zinc, and mercury. Binding with organic molecules reduces toxicity and bioavailability for metals uptake in aquatic organisms. We investigated the use of a commercially-available organic product, Borregro HA-1, to aid in metals remediation in an aquatic environment
