Comprehensive Guide to Spent GAC Disposal: Understanding the Current Landscape and Compliance Introduction As water treatment facilities increasingly rely on granular activated carbon (GAC) for contaminant removal, the management and disposal of spent GAC have emerged as critical aspects of operational efficiency and environmental compliance. Spent GAC, saturated with adsorbed pollutants, poses unique challenges related […]
Cation exchange is a critical process in wastewater treatment that involves the replacement of positively charged ions in the water with ions from a solid phase, typically a resin. This method is especially important for removing contaminants such as calcium, magnesium, and heavy metals from wastewater streams. By exchanging undesirable cations for more benign ones, […]
