Organic matter (OM) is the carbon material produced in general by living creatures, plants, animals or microorganisms. Examples of carbohydrates, proteins and lipids. Unlike the mineral matter, organic matter is often biodegradable. It can be easily recycled into compost or biogas. To be precise organic matter consists of organic compounds whose study is the subject of organic chemistry and biochemistry. Besides carbon and water are essential components, it can also contain the elements hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), iron (Fe) .. The composition of living beings consists mainly of water (90% of a plant, 65% of a human being), but also minerals (ions). Organic matter is a small percentage of the fresh material, but a high proportion of dry matter:. The palmitic acid, 16 carbon atoms, an example of fatty acid. This is the main constituent of palm oil, used in food but also to produce agrofuels. The dead organic matter soils is dead organic matter on Earth, especially in cold environments. As for the living organic matter, it is the biomass. It is a major reservoir of carbon, and accelerating its degradation due to global warming increases CO2 emissions and methane CH4, which are greenhouse gas emissions. In biology, it refers to as the organic matter to the material can decompose (or be), or material resulting from decomposition. It is true that organic matter is often the remains of a living organism, and may contain living organisms, but any organic matter not to do with the living. Conversely, polymers and plastics, if they can be called "organic materials" are generally not considered organic matter by this definition, because they break down very easily. The biodegradability of organic matter particularly interested in the field of management and distribution of water. Determination of Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) reflects the biodegradability of organic pollution in water, because the microorganisms are avid organic matter. Determination of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) accounts for its dissolved organic matter, whether organic or non-biodegradable. These biochemical both have a standard protocol. The organic matter is not necessarily created by living organisms, and they do not rely exclusively on it. The shell of a clam, for example, although the product of a living organism, can not be broken - first because of its lack of organic molecules. An example is cons urea, an organic substance that can be synthesized without using a biological activity. The correlation between "organic" living organism has the scientific idea, now abandoned, of vitalism, which gave to life a special force which gave itself the power to create organic materials. The synthesis of urea by Friedrich Wöhler in 1828 was the first challenge to this theory, before the modern microbiology.The organic matter contains carbon by definition. It occurs in nature as a matter of animal or vegetable. Chemists are developing "compounds, organic synthesis which do not exist in nature from petroleum, including plastics. This is the field of organic chemistry. The links of the organic material with water is very important in the areas of water quality. Indeed, a certain part of the MO is not available for analysis (aqueous phase). The organic matter in water is different in categories:. Oil and natural gas are the products of incomplete decomposition of organic matter bacterial, microbial produced in the ocean. The carbon-carbon bonds are rich in energy. The combustion of organic compounds released this energy as heat and can be used for various needs: heating, transport. The elements N, P content in organic matter can be slowly released during the slow decomposition of organic matter contained in:.
