| Abstract |
A pilot plant was operated at the Kansas City Missouri Water Treatment Plant to study adsorption as a means of removing trihalomethanes and total organic carbon from drinking water. The pilot plant consisted of 15 columns 6 inches in diameter and each containing about a 3 ft depth of a granular adsorbent. Granular activated carbons and polymeric adsorbents were compared in four extended tests conducted over periods of 183, 111, 65 and 129 days. The pilot plant studies demonstrated the effects of regeneration, variations in trace organic concentration, and depth of adsorbent on trace organic removal including effluent concentration and adsorption capacity. |
