Journal AWWA - Removing VOCs From Groundwater Containing Humic Substances by Means of Coupled Air Stripping and Adsorption
AWWA期刊-通过耦合气提和吸附从含有腐殖物质的地下水中去除挥发性有机化合物
Sequential air stripping and activated carbon adsorption were used for removing trichloroethylene (TCE) and carbon tetrachloride (CT) from a groundwater containing a high background level of organic carbon. Although both compounds were effectively removed by either process, TCE was more amenable to removal by adsorption, whereas CT was more amenable to removal by stripping. Background levels of organic carbon were found to significantly affect adsorption of both TCE and CT, reducing observed sorbent loadings. Includes 15 references, tables, figures.
