Ozone-Based Regeneration of Granular Zeolites Loaded with Organic Micropollutants

The removal of organic micropollutants (OMPs) in the aquatic environment is crucial to avoid health hazards. Zeolites have been confirmed as a selective adsorbent and can effectively remove target OMPs. To achieve sustainable application of adsorbents, regeneration of zeolites is required. <br/>The objective of this study was to investigate the...

Improving Organic Micropollutant Removal of Activated Carbon by Pre-treatment with Zeolite Adsorbent

Activated carbon (AC) is commonly used in drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) to remove organic micro-pollutants (OMPs), and it is effective in adsorbing a wide range of OMPs. However, its adsorption efficiency can be affected by natural organic matter (NOM). NOM is a complex matrix and widely exists in water bodies. During the drinking...
