The objectives of this slide presentation include: explore steam treatment for enlargement ofcarbon pores and enhanced dissolved natural organic matter (DOM) removal;test the performance of the modified granular activated carbon (GAC)under typical drinking water treatmentconditions; and,evaluate the effect of carbon modification ondisinfection byproduct (DBP) control. Materials and methods included:GAC:HD3000 (HD),A coal-based steam-activated carbon;high temperature steam treatment(HD-S21, HD-S37, HD-S45); Myrtle Beach and Spartanburg raw and treatedDOM collected with reverse osmosis (RO) isolation;isotherm experiments;Rapid Small Scale Column Tests (RSSCTs)(EBCT=10 min);THM and HAA formation measurements; and,resin fractionation. Includes tables, figures.
