Quantitative detection of powdered activated carbon in wastewater treatment plant effluent by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)

For the elimination of potentially harmful micropollutants, powdered activated carbon (PAC) adsorption is applied in many wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). This holds the risk of PAC leakage into the WWTP effluent and desorption of contaminants into natural water bodies. In order to assess a poten...
