Abstract

This study accessed the adsorption characteristics of the 9 trihalomethanes (THMs) on coal-based granular activated carbon (GAC). The breakthrough appeared first for $CHCl_3$ and sequentially for $CHBr_2Cl$, $CHBr_3$, $CHCl_2I$, CHBrClI, $CHBr_2I$, $CHClI_2$, $CHBrI_2$, and $CHI_3$. The maximum adsorption capacity (X/M) for the 9 THMs with apparent breakthrough points ranged from $1,175{\mu}g/g$ (for $CHCl_3$) to $11,087{\mu}g/g$ (for $CHI_3$). Carbon usage rate (CUR) for $CHCl_3$ was 0.149 g/day, 5.5 times higher than for $CHCl_3$ (0.027 g/day).
