Evaluating Capacities of GAC Preloaded with Natural Water
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Adsorption studies are conducted to determine how preloading a natural groundwater onto GAC affects the adsorption of cis‐l,2‐dichloroethene in small‐scale and pilot‐scale columns. Capacities are determined from batch‐isotherm ...
Glyphosate Removal from Drinking Water
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Activated‐carbon, oxidation, conventional‐treatment, filtration, and membrane studies are conducted to determine which process is best suited to remove the herbicide glyphosate from potable water. Both bench‐scale and ...
Removing Esoteric Contaminants from Drinking Waters: Impacts of Treatment Implementation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Lyophilization and Reconstitution of Reverse-Osmosis Concentrated Natural Organic Matter from a Drinking Water Source
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Drinking water treatment research can be complicated by difficulties in shipping large water quantities and changing natural organic matter (NOM) characteristics over time. To overcome these issues, it is advantageous to ...
Evaluating Multicomponent Competitive Adsorption in Fixed Beds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An equilibrium column model (ECM) was developed to evaluate multicomponent competition in fixed‐bed adsorption columns. The model ignores mass transfer resistances and uses ideal adsorbed solution theory to predict the ...
Modeling PFAS Removal Using Granular Activated Carbon for Full-Scale System Design
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are increasingly of interest to drinking water utilities due to state regulations, the release of federal and state health advisories, and public concern. Pilot-scale data were ...
