Abstract

Develops a testing protocol for arsenic adsorbents based on the rapid small-scale column testing (RSSCT) procedure. Modifies the RSSCT procedure and develops a protocol to rapidly determine the sorptive characteristics, selectivity, and capacity of absorption media. Also predicts the performance of absorbents for full-scale treatment systems. Published in 2005.
