[en] The determination and radiation degradation of organic pollutant existing in municipal sewage wastewater of Damascus plant were investigated. The wastewater samples were analyzed using TOC, HPLC, and GC techniques, and irradiation was carried out using gamma radiation with dose rate 3.5 kGy/h. The results have shown that the TOC value increases in hot season. Some of pesticides have been noticed in wastewater. These pesticides need 2.5 kGy to be degraded. The variation of TOC gives the raison to determined the existence of organic acids as function of gamma doses. Therefore, the concentration of the citric, malic, oxalic and acitic acids was increased with the increase of gamma dose. it is clear that the high value of TOC need high dose to be degraded. It is shown that with low dose the value of TOC increased and then started to be decreased. This remark may be due to the radiation reactions in aqueous phase. Significant decrease of organic pollutants degradation is caused by the presence of very small amount of hydroxyl group which known as effective scavenger for radicals. (Author)
