Abstract
The purpose of the investigations described in the report has been threefold: Determine the extent and capacity of carbon to adsorb substances from a municipal sewage which has been subjected previously to conventional methods through the secondary treatment process. Determine if commercially available chemical oxidants can regenerate an activated carbon which has exhaustively adsorbed soluble municipal waste substances. Elaborate on some of the conditions necessary for optimum performance of the best chemical oxidant resulting from a regeneration of exhausted activated carbon screening program.
