The influence of active carbon contaminants on the ozonation mechanism interpretation

Abstract: In water treatment technology, activated carbons are used primarily as sorbents to remove organic impurities, mainly natural organic matter, but also as catalysts in the ozonation process. Commercially available activated carbons are usually contaminated with mineral substances, classified into two main groups: alkali metals (Ca, Na, K, Li, Mg) and multivalent metals (Al, Fe, Ti, Si). The presence of impurities on the carbon surface significantly affects the pHpzc values determined for raw and ozonated carbon … Show more

“…Te surface charge of activated carbons 32 is afected by the pH of the solution. When the pH of the solution is less than pH pzc, the carbon surface has a positive surface charge, and when the pH is more than pH pzc, the carbon surface has a negative charge [35]. Terefore, the activated carbon prepared under this study exhibit a positive surface charge and attracts negatively charged HCrO4 − .…”
