哈伯勒过程可能是美国第一次在洛杉矶的什里夫波特展出。，中试装置应能絮凝并去除浑浊地表水中的固体（接触絮凝），同时用粉末活性炭（PAC）处理水，以去除可溶性有机化合物。在系统中使用PAC时，三卤甲烷生成潜力的总体降低率为63-66%，但如果PAC的类型或剂量得到优化，预计可以实现更大的降低。 包括6个参考文献、表格、图表。

Perhaps for the first time in the United States, the Haberer process was shown in a Shreveport, La., pilot unit to be capable of flocculating and removing solids from a turbid surface water (contact flocculation) and of simultaneously treating the water with powdered activated carbon (PAC) to remove soluble organic compounds. The overall reduction in trihalomethane formation potential was 63-66 percent when PAC was used in the system, but it is expected that even greater reductions could be achieved if either the type or the dosage of PAC was optimized. Includes 6 references, tables, figures.
