Biofiltration, historically used for biodegradable organic matter (BOM) removal in drinking
water treatment, is being increasingly applied for potable reuse which requires unique …

Disinfection byproduct (DBP) pre-formation is a major issue when prechlorination is used
before or during advanced treatment of impacted drinking water sources. Control strategies …

For the potable reuse of municipal wastewater effluent, carbon based advanced treatment
(CBAT) using coagulation, ozonation, biofiltration and/or granular activated carbon (GAC) …

Fluorescence spectroscopy to evaluate the removal of dissolved organic matter (DOM) via
biofiltration under varying operational and water quality conditions was investigated in this …

The impact of source water dissolved organic matter (DOM) origin, empty bed contact time
(EBCT), temperature, and pretreatment methods on biofiltration performance was evaluated …

With widespread occurrence and increasing concern of emerging contaminants (CECs) in
source water, biologically active filters (BAF) have been gaining acceptance in water …

Abstract “Effective Enzyme Activity”, or simply “Effective Activity”, is proposed as a
biofiltration monitoring tool which combines enzyme activity with empty bed contact time …

Elevated/altered levels of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in water can be challenging to
treat after wildfire. Biologically mediated treatment removes some DOM; here, its ability to …

Brominated disinfection byproducts (DBPs) are a concern to drinking water utilities due to
their toxicity and increasing prevalence in water systems. Haloacetic acids (HAAs) are a …
