Photodecomposition of humic acid and natural organic matter in swamp water using a TiO2-coated ceramic foam filter: Potential for the formation of disinfection byproducts

► TiO2-ceramic foam filter can be applied to photodecomposition of HA and NOM. ► The reactor is effectiveness for the decomposition of pollutants in real swamp water. ► The formations of DBPs were related on NOM in the solution photochemically treated. ► This TCF reactor has high repeatability for the decomposition and ease of handling.
