Removal of Specific DBP by GAC in Galatsi (Athens) WTP
Abstract:The objective of this pilot-study is to evaluate the Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)
performance for the removal of specific disinfection by-products (DBPs), trihalomethanes
(THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs), from Athens drinking water. For this purpose, a GAC
pilot filter-adsorber was operated in Galatsi WTP, Athens, for 235 days, until the GAC
removal efficiency for individual THMs, HAAs and DOC was almost eliminated
(breakthrough). From the experimental results, GAC bed life, … Show more
