Resistance of an organic molecule to transformation by either chemical or biological processes contributing to its longevity in the environment (e.g., many organochlorine compounds are known to be persistent). Persistent organic compounds, because they are lipid-soluble, tend to accumulate in aquatic biota where they may exert adverse effects. Volume 2(1). 

The photo-initiated oxidation of persistent organic compounds in nickel containing waters of low optical transmittance (I <1 mm) by the H2O2-UV AOP could be satisfactorily achieved by using the photoreactor presented in Fig. 8-10 (Sorensen and Weckenmann, 1998).

The industry should commit to ensuring that releases (emissions) of metals and persistent organic compounds from the whole lifecycle do not result in systematic increases in concentration in nature (system condition 2). 

A valuable overview of the global dissemination of persistent organic compounds has been given (Wania and Mackay 1996), and application of fugacity models to the distribution of PAHs (Mackay and Callcott 1998). Attention should also be directed to the different physiology and biochemistry of the organisms as well as to their trophic level important details of food chains are, however, noted only tangentially in this account.

It is a need to develop monitoring schemes on national level in order to ensure systematic data collection of the residues of persistent organic compounds, including pesticides in various environmental media, living organisms and humans.
