Adsorption Influencing Factors
Temperature: Most effective 60°F - 80°F 
pH: Most organics in water are more soluble at pH lower than 7.0
Contact Time: Very important to achieve proper flow rates for any adsorption system to function properly
Carbon Media Types
Bituminous: Basic coal based granular media
Cococut Shell: Superior level of hardness; high activity level; trihalomethane removal; longer life expectancy
Acid Washed: Increases adsorptive capacity of carbon base and lowers the level of impurities
Catalytic: Specialized carbon media to remove hydrogen sulfide gas, iron, and chloramines
Standard Operating Conditions
Service Flow Rate: 2 - 6 GPM/cu.ft.
Backwash Flow Rate: 10 GPM/sq. ft.
Freeboard: 50% of bed depth
pH: 6.5 – 7.5
*NOTE: Service flow rates are calculated at 2-6 GPM/cu.ft. for standard taste, odor and chlorine removal application using bituminous carbon. Chloramines and TOC/VOC applications will require lower service flow rates and longer empty bed contact time or specialized carbon formulations. Allow carbon bed to soak overnight before initial backwash.
*WARNING: Wet activated carbon preferentially removes oxygen from air. In closed or partially closed containers and vessels, oxygen depletion may reach hazardous levels. If workers are to enter a vessel containing carbon, appropriate procedures for potentially low-oxygen environment should be followed. Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
