Abstract: Pilot- and laboratory-scale granular activated carbon (GAC) studies were conducted to determine the extent of 2-methylisoborneol (MIB) removal from two conventionally treated waters. Two different GACs were evaluated, a ...

Abstract: Natural organic material (NOM) has been the focus of many studies because of its ability to compromise water treatment processes. This case study utilized ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy and molecular weight distributions ...

Abstract: There are a growing number of microcystin-degrading organisms that have been isolated; however, their ability to degrade these toxins in an immobilized state within water treatment plant media filters is yet to be explored ...

Abstract: Cyanobacteria blooms are an increasing issue in wastewater-treatment systems as the associated toxins could induce health risks due to potential passage through irrigation practices using recycled water. The impacts of ...

Abstract: Cyanobacteria are a global problem as they are able to produce compounds which can compromise the quality of potable water. Of major concern are the microcystin toxins which in dissolved form are not well removed by ...
