Abstract
The objectives of this project were to minimize the potential analytical errors caused by activated carbon (AC)-catalyzed nitrosamine formation reactions, and evaluate the potential of AC-catalyzed nitrosamine formation under water filtration applications. The research developed effective and practical strategies for the water industry to minimize undesirable nitrosamine formation associated with AC adsorbents in nitrosamine analysis and water treatment.
