| Abstract | Batch tests of coals and coal-derived materials were made to determine their effectiveness in removing organic contaiminants (COD and ABS) from the final effluent of secondary-treated waste waters. The adsorptive capacity of flyashes, coals, including at least one sample of each rank found in this country, pretreated coals, and miscellaneous materials including commercial chars and coke was determined and compared with that of granular activated carbon.
