Abstract: Control of organic vapors by adsorption on activated carbon can be impacted by the presence of water vapor in the gas stream. As a foundation to better understand this issue, the transport and sorption of water vapor within ...

Abstract: Removal of arsenic using an iron-oxide-based adsorbent (IBA) was examined for the groundwater near a black foot disease epidemic area, Chiayi, Taiwan. The groundwater was first characterized for arsenic speciation and water ...

Abstract: This study carries out a system-based assessment in search of the optimal operating strategy for light hydrocarbon recovery in a contaminated aquifer using bioslurping technology. A two-stage analytical framework involving ...

Abstract: The relationships among adsorption-desorption kinetics, equilibrium partitioning, and fixed-column breakthrough curves are elucidated for airborne benzene and vinyl chloride on activated carbon grains and fibers. An ...

Abstract: In this study, the occurrence and treatment of two earthy-musty odorants, geosmin and 2-MIB, produced by cyanobacteria is investigated at two conventional drinking-water treatment plants (WTPs) at Kinmen Island, Taiwan. ...
