Efficiency of activated carbon adsorption in removal of selected pharmaceuticals from water
This study presents adsorption performance for caffeine and salicylic acid using granular activated carbon (GAC) and various powdered activated carbons (PAC) namely Hydrodarco C, NRS EA 0.5-1.5, SAE 2 and SAE Super. It was found that for caffeine SAE Super outperformed the rest with much higher remo...
