adsorption on carbon is the accumulation of pollutant particles on the developed pore surface of activated carbon until its capacity is exhausted.

What does adsorption on carbon mean in practice?

Compounds move from water to the pores of carbon until the available adsorption sites are filled.

When does it matter?

Breakthrough can occur without any visible change in the cartridge, and the presence of competing compounds reduces its actual capacity.

Which solutions are related to it?

The carbon type for the adsorbate is selected, the appropriate EBCT is provided, and the exchange is determined based on volume or post-filter measurement.
