The application of GAC filters was evaluated to treat effluents of different quality The GAC breakthrough was quicker for diclofenac than for carbamazepine and diazepamThe high TSS content in settler effluent strongly limited the lifespan of GAC filtersThe 2 types of GAC tested exhibited very similar technical performance in OMP removal Economical and environmental criteria were included to select the most suitable GAC *Highlights (for review)Integrating granular activated carbon in the post-treatment of membrane and settler effluents to improve organic micropollutants removal
