process is caused by the autooxidation of hydroquinone- and catechol-related species

DOM, the reactive triplet states of which could be involved in oxidation of water and/
or OH – and in the production of lower energy hydroxylating species that simulate
DOM reactivity (Alegria et al. 1997; Pochon et al. 2002; Gan et al. 2008; Maurino
