Full Description

The removal of ug/L concentrations of perchlorate using biologically active carbon (BAC) filtration was investigated. Previous work has shown that BAC filtration can be a highly effective treatment process for the removal of perchlorate from drinking water. The work presented in this paper demonstrated that BAC filtration is robust with respect to various filter operating conditions and water quality characteristics. Includes 5 references.
