Adsorption / Active Carbon - Water Treatment and Purification
Activated carbon adsorption. Adsorption is a process where a solid is used for removing a soluble substance from the water. In this process active carbon is the solid. Activated carbon is produced specifically so as to achieve a very big internal surface (between 500 - 1500 m 2 /g). This big internal surface makes active carbon ideal for

Drinking Water Treatability
Activated carbon is an effective adsorbent because it is a highly porous material and provides a large surface area to which contaminants may adsorb. The two main types of activated carbon used in water treatment applications are granular activated carbon (GAC) and powdered activated carbon (PAC).

What Is Adsorption? - Global Water & Wastewater Solutions
The first use of activated carbon for municipal water treatment was in 1930. The Hackensack Water Co. in Milford, New Jersey, used it for controlling odors and improving the water’s taste. Roughly 1,200 water treatment plants were using powdered activated carbon for water treatment by 1943, according to David Hendricks, writing in

Activated Carbon Filtration - Water Treatment Guide
Activated carbon is a proven technology for the removal of naturally occurring organics and residual disinfectants. Designing an activated carbon filtration system needs to take into account the differences in the water to be treated, the type of activated carbon used, and the effluent quality and operating parameters.

Activated carbon filters - Sewage Treatment Plant
Activated Carbon Filter is used to adsorb chlorine, organics, tri-halo methane (THM), taste, odour, and colour from Water & Wastewater. Activated carbon is a charcoal that has been treated with oxygen to open up millions of tiny pores between the carbon atoms. The activated carbon has a massive surface area (2000 – 3000 square metres per gram of activated carbon) making it highly effective at adsorbing impurities from water.

Industrial Air Treatment with Activated Carbon
Industrial air treatment with activated carbon is the leading technology for the removal of VOCs from air and other gases, including the removal of siloxanes from biogas. In most cases, the compound can be removed to below the detection limit, which means that the most stringent air quality regulations can be met and exceeded.

- Are Pam flocculants toxic?
- The potential environmental hazard does not concern the PAM itself, which is generally considered as not toxic (Andersen 2005), but the products of PAM degradation and the residual AMD contained in the flocculants due to incomplete polymerization process (Labahn et al. 2010; Young et al. 2007; Caulfield et al. 2002).
- What are flocculants made of?
- In most cases, flocculants are polymers composed of polyacrylamide (PAM) (Taylor et al. 2002). PAM is a polymer with high molecular weight, synthetized from acrylamide (AMD) and acrylic acid/acrylate (AA) (Scott et al. 1996; Caulfield et al. 2002).
- Does Pam degradation affect flocculant performance?
- PAM-based flocculant degradation has been mainly studied for PAMs in aqueous solutions. The degradation of PAMs results in a reduction of the molecular weight of the polymer and can adversely affect the performance of such aqueous solutions in their commercial application as flocculants.
