KWR – Predicting the Removal Performance of Activated Carbon Filters in Water Treatment

17-12-2018 - In the Netherlands, about one-third of the drinking water is produced out of surface water that may contain all kinds of micropollutants (pesticides, pharmaceuticals, industrial compounds). A large fraction of these drinking water production sites uses filtration by sorption onto activated carbon as an important barrier for micropollutants that are present in the water. The
