Title:
W14 The Future of Water Reuse Using Carbon-Based Advanced Treatment (CBAT) to Implement "One Water" Initiatives
Description:
Carbon-based advanced treatment (CBAT) includes processes such as biological activated carbon (BAC) and granular activated carbon adsorption that have been shown to be effective for pathogen and chemical removal in bench-, pilot- and full-scale applications. Additionally, because of water quality benefits observed, using the ozone/BAC process—coupling biofiltration with an upstream preoxidant such as ozone—has become common in drinking water and advanced water treatment applications. With capital and operating costs of treatment schemes dictating project design and implementation, inland utilities and others are investigating in the use of non reverse osmosis based multibarrier schemes that do not pose brine or concentrate management challenges and can provide robust treatment in a sustainable and cost-effective manner. The benefits of CBAT, lessons learned from pilot- and full-scale projects, how CBAT fits into the current active and evolving regulatory landscape, and limitations of CBAT in advanced treatment will be discussed.
