Book Activated Carbon for Water and Wastewater Treatment

Download or read book Activated Carbon for Water and Wastewater Treatment written by Ferhan Cecen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-09-19 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph provides comprehensive coverage of technologies which integrate adsorption and biological processes in water and wastewater treatment. The authors provide both an introduction to the topic as well as a detailed discussion of theoretical and practical considerations. After a review of the basics involved in the chemistry, biology and technology of integrated adsorption and biological removal, they discuss the setup of pilot- and full-scale treatment facilities, covering powdered as well as granular activated carbon. They elucidate the factors that influence the successful operation of integrated systems. Their discussion on integrated systems expands from the effects of environmental to the removal of various pollutants, to regeneration of activated carbon, and to the analysis of such systems in mathematical terms. The authors conclude with a look at future needs for research and develoment. A truly valuable resource for environmental engineers, environmental and water chemists, as well as professionals working in water and wastewater treatment.

Book Activated Carbon

Download or read book Activated Carbon written by Zaid K. Chowdhury and published by American Water Works Association. This book was released on 2013 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Many books have been written about granular activated carbon. Some focus on the theory of performance and removal mechanisms while others focus on design features. This book focuses on solutions. It describes the challenges facing water providers to provide safe water that is acceptable to their customers, utility experiences using activated carbon, activated carbon applications, and design and procurement approaches. The appendices include detailed case studies and a life-cycle assessment demonstrating favorable sustainability considerations for activated carbon when compared to other treatment technologies. Never before has all of this information been together in one location. The what, why, and how of activated carbon are connected in this book and demonstrate why this treatment technology has maintained its status as an integral treatment technology in the quest for pure water over millennia"--

Book Experimental Study of Methylene Blue Adsorption on Granular Activated Carbon

Download or read book Experimental Study of Methylene Blue Adsorption on Granular Activated Carbon written by Shuying Xu and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is hard to remove dye pollutants from wastewater. Adsorption is one of the effective methodologies for dye pollutants removal. The big challenge for adsorption is the determination of the equilibrium point. The equilibrium point may be misidentified when the change in concentration is in the acceptable experimental error range and/or when fitted isotherm parameters do not change over time. This study provides an estimation method based on integrated adsorption kinetics and isotherms to predict the aqueous adsorbate concentration at equilibrium and give a sense of the approach to equilibrium. In addition, the method provides information on how plots of absorbed concentration versus aqueous concentration change over time. To accomplish this, a synthetic model test was initiated in the laboratory using methylene blue as the adsorbate and granular activated carbon as the adsorbent. Two kinetic models (pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order) and three isotherms (linear, Langmuir, and Freundlich) were employed, yielding six integrated models. The pseudo-second order kinetic model with either Langmuir or Freundlich isotherm provides a good estimation of the aqueous adsorbate concentration at equilibrium. While the data collected were not well by any isotherm model, the pseudo-second order kinetic model with the Freundlich isotherm reasonably fit plots of absorbed concentration versus aqueous concentration over time.

Book Effects of Activated Carbon Characteristics on Organic Contaminant Removal

Download or read book Effects of Activated Carbon Characteristics on Organic Contaminant Removal written by Detlef R. U. Knappe and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many water treatment plants need to remove objectionable trace organic compounds, and activated carbon adsorption is often the best available technology. Utilities face the challenge of having to choose from a large variety of activated carbons, and iodine number or BET surface area values are often utilized in the selection process. Although neither parameter correlates well with adsorption capacities, alternative activated carbon selection criteria based on fundamental adsorbent and adsorbate properties are lacking to date. The first objective of this research was to systematically evaluate the effects of activated carbon pore structure and surface chemistry on the adsorption of two common drinking water contaminants: the relatively polar fuel oxygenate methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE) and the relatively nonpolar solvent trichloroethene (TCE). The second objective was to develop simple descriptors of activated carbon characteristics that facilitate the selection of suitable adsorbents for the removal of organic contaminants from drinking water.Originally published by AwwaRF for its subscribers in 2003 This publication can also be purchased and downloaded via Pay Per View on Water Intelligence Online - click on the Pay Per View icon below

Book Adsorption Studies of Synthetic Batik Dye  SBD  Using Granular Activated Carbon  GAC

Download or read book Adsorption Studies of Synthetic Batik Dye SBD Using Granular Activated Carbon GAC written by Normimi Fatihah Ibrahim and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Batik industry is a very famous textile industry in Malaysia especially in East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Started in small scale, today it has become one of the highest economic growths in Malaysia due to high demands locally and from abroad. However, the wastewater from textile industry contributes to water pollution since it utilizes a lot of chemicals. Preliminary studies show that the wastewater from this homemade textile industry contains grease, wax, heavy metal, surfactant, suspended solid, and dyes (organic and inorganic). This research was done to study the potential of granular activated carbon (GAC) for the adsorption of synthetic batik dye (SBD) from aqueous solution by the variation of solution with different contact time, adsorbent dosage and initial concentration of SBD. Activated carbon (AC) is commonly known as one of the great adsorbents in adsorption process. For this study, granular activated carbon (GAC) has been used since it is preferred for all adsorption of gases and vapors as their rate of diffusion are faster. The synthetic batik dye has been chose because the research about this topic has not been done yet. There are three parameters that will be investigated; effect of adsorbent dosage (w), effect of contact time and effect of initial synthetic batik dye concentration. All results from the experiment were being analyzed using UV-Visible Spectrophotometer (UV-Vis). The results show that the color of the dye changes with different contact time, adsorbent dosage and also different initial concentration of synthetic batik dye. The data collected could be used to improve the effectiveness of dye removal from the batik industry wastewater using granular activated carbon (GAC). The research showed the applicability of GAC to adsorb the color of SBD. For SBD initial concentration shows the highest percentage concentration difference which is 69.75 % occurring at 0.2 g/L. While for adsorbent dosage, the highest dosage which is 60 gram get the highest percentage; 94.77 %. And for contact time, the longest contact time which is 20 minutes gets the highest percentage where the percentage is 95.06 %.
