| Abstract |
The combination of ozonation followed by granular activated carbon (GAC) has been suggested as a means to improve the cost effectiveness of the GAC process for organics removal. Several combinations of ozonation and chlorination were analyzed for their effects on GAC adsorption. Although ozonation increased biodegradation of dissolved organic carbon, the ozone process was shown to interfere with the ability of GAC to treat volatile halogenated organics. Ozonation appears to increase competition for adsorption sites between volatile halogenated organics and the natural background organic matrix. |
