Preliminary studies suggest that the conventional method of carbon regeneration at 962 degrees Centigrade (1750 degrees Fahrenheit), developed for carbon heavily laden with industrial and wastewater organics, may be too harsh a condition for carbon used for drinking water. Regeneration at 542 degrees Centigrade (1000 degrees Fahrenheit) may lead to adsorption sites being clogged. At 850 degrees Centigrade (1550 degrees Fahrenheit), carbon regeneration restored the carbon capacity for MEK and n-butanol probes during laboratory studies. Pilot-column studies were used to obtain these results. Includes 16 references, tables, figures.
