Activatedcarbon is able to adsorb and thus remove micropollutants from
water (Zietzschmann et al., 2014) and can be applied either in its
granular form or as a fine powder with a particle size of 10e150 mm.
Powdered activated carbon (PAC) can be dosed with a high flexibility
in relation to the water volume and its degree of contamination
and is commonly applied in doses of 10-20 mg/L
