Resumo: | This study aimed to evaluate removing of sulphamethoxazole, diclofenac and 17β- estradiol on distilled and natural waters by adsorption on two kinds of granular activated carbon (GAC) in a bench scale. Method used was Rapid Small Scale Column Test (RSSCT), which has chosen in order to reduce costs and time spent for adsorption tests. Therefore, we have tested the ability of bituminous coal (mineral) and another one made by skin of coconut palm (vegetal). Adsorption capacity was tested individually in distilled water for each microcontaminant and in natural water (low and high turbidity) previously fortified with a solution of microcontaminants associated. Natural waters were previously treated by clarification treatment and afterwards, it was applied a post treatment in GAC columns. Results obtained from distilled water tests has shown that better removal efficiency occurred firstly to diclofenac, secondly to sulphametoxazhole and thirdly to 17β-estradiol. Clarification treatment has been effective to removal of turbidity, as well as microcontaminants and GAC columns have had a better performance to removal of microcontaminants in low turbidity natural water. The best performance has observed to mineral CAG, which obtained higher removal efficiency and higher adsorption capacity than vegetal GAC in all tests. This may be due to that mineral CAG has a greater surface area and greater total pore volume than vegetal one, which results in more free spaces on the carbon surface, allowing accommodation of adsorbates molecules |
