Özet

Abstract: In this study, we investigated the removal of organic matter from water through the adsorption method. The experimental studies were conducted using the following water samples: (i) a synthetic organic matter solution with a very low range of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), (ii) a synthetic organic matter solution with a high range of DOC, (iii) the solution studied after ozonation of a water sample containing natural organic matter at an ozone dose of approximately 2 mg/L, and (iv) the supernatant solution of the sludge from a natural water sample subjected to coagulation-flocculation. In addition to investigating the efficiency of organic matter removal through activated carbon adsorption in the experiments, we also examined the performance of CaCO3 particles prepared in the laboratory in adsorption. The addition of CaCO3 to powdered activated carbon (PAC) increased the adsorption efficiency compared to experiments using only PAC for organic matter removal.
