Adsorptive removal of adsorbable organic halogens by activated carbon

Adsorbable organic halogens (AOX) Ruggedness test

Sources of adsorbable organic halogens (AOX) in sludge of Gaza.

Average concentrations of adsorbable organic halogens (AOX) in sludge from the Gaza Strip reached 600 mg kg(-1) which currently represents a major limiting factor for sludge application in agriculture. This study aims to identify the main sources of AOX in Gaza where the area is small with limited industrial activities. The results showed that the AOX in effluent sludge is formed mainly inside ...

Removal of volatile organic compound by activated carbon fiber

Experiments were carried out to study adsorption/desorption of volatile organic compound (VOC) on the activated carbon fiber (ACF) under dynamic conditions. The primary objective was to experimentally demonstrate the suitability of ACF in effectively adsorbing VOCs from inert gaseous stream under varying operating conditions, and compare its performance vis-à-vis that of the other commercially ...

Organic Micropollutant Removal by Biological Activated Carbon Filtration: A Review

Characteristics of adsorptive removal of 2-methylisoborneol by micro-milled activated carbon

In both research and practice of water purification technology, superfine powdered activated carbon (SPAC), which is produced from conventionally sized powdered activated carbon (PAC) by wet milling in a bead mill, has attracted attention for its higher adsorption capacity of contaminants as well as the higher adsorptive uptake speed than its parent PAC. However, the previous SPAC researches on...
