Optimizing the Placement of GAC Filtration Units

Optimizing the Placement of GAC Filtration Units

The costs of granular activated carbon (GAC) filter-adsorbers (second-stage GAC filtration) were compared with those of the sand replacement option (first-stage GAC filtration). Simulation models of total organic carbon (TOC) adsorption and particle removal were used to describe filter performance....

Zusammenfassung:The costs of granular activated carbon (GAC) filter-adsorbers (second-stage GAC filtration) were compared with those of the sand replacement option (first-stage GAC filtration). Simulation models of total organic carbon (TOC) adsorption and particle removal were used to describe filter performance. First-stage filtration was found to be the most cost-effective treatment option when TOC removals of
