Removal of Geosmin by Powered Activated Carbon as an Emergency Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

The removal of geosmin by powered activated carbon (PAC) was studied at laboratory to select suitable PAC type and the removal efficiencies of geosmin by PAC in different application point as an emergency method were evaluated. The adsorption efficiency of coal-based PAC on geosmin was superior to that of bamboo-based PAC. The contact time and PAC dose were two important factors that affect the removal effect of geosmin. Geosmin could be controled below 10ng/L at 200ng/L of initial concentration.
