Removal of Trichloroethylene by Cometabolic Transformation and Activated Carbon Adsorption Using Two-stage Methanotrophic Treatment System

Use of activated carbon in water, wastewater, and hazardous wastes treatment has been growing rapidly over the past decade due to increasing awareness of the potential hazards of man-made chemicals, and the stringent regulatory standards enacted by regulatory agencies. Treatment technologies have also to be developed and designed toward meeting those chemical-specific standards and goals. This paper talks about the removal of Trichloroethylene using the Two-stage Methanotrophic Treatment System.
