Thermal regeneration of activated carbon for the treatment of drinking water
… best available technology (BAT) for the removal of synthetic organic compounds from drinking water. Drinking water utilities which use GAC must either replace or regenerate the carbon periodically. Thermal regeneration is one option for handling spent carbon.

Quantifying uncertainty in pathogen removal, membrane integrity monitoring and health consequences in the treatment of drinking water
… Analysis, to examine uncertainty in removal of oocysts of Cryptosporidium and viruses in membranes used to treat drinking water. In chapter 2, we examined variability and uncertainty in the determination of parameters used in pressure-based direct integrity tests of hollow fiber micro- and …

Control of viruses in drinking water with visible light-activated TiON/PdO photocatalyst: performance dynamics associated with regeneration and activation
… for cost-effective and socio-culturally accepted treatment of drinking water in areas without access to clean water has motivated exploration of alternative pathogen control strategies including point of use systems using solar disinfection. Photocatalytic materials, such as titanium dioxide, have …

Arsenic Stability In Fresh and Aged Amorphous Ferric Hydroxide Sludges Generated from Brine Treatment Processes
… it is estimated that about 6 million pounds of arsenic-bearing residuals (ABSR) will be generated annually in the United States when full compliance with the new standard for arsenic in drinking water (10 μg/L) is realized. Effective management of disposal of ABSR requires both a full …

Elucidation of nitrate reduction mechanisms on a Pd/In bimetallic catalyst using isotope labeled nitrogen species
… Pd-based catalysts has emerged as an effective treatment approach for nitrate (NO3-) removal, but its full-scale application for direct treatment of drinking water or ion exchange regenerant brines requires improved selectivity for the end-product dinitrogen (N2) over toxic ammonia species …

Freshwater Mussels as Biofilters
Freshwater mussels (Bivalvia: Unionidae) are filter feeders, removing phytoplankton and other suspended particulate matter from the water. The removal of suspended matter from water is often considered desirable, in order to reduce algal blooms and in the treatment of drinking water. This thesis …
