Evaluation of selected activated carbon filters and sand media for nutrient and pathogen removal from an anaerobic baffled reactor effluent system

The performance of biochar media filters derived from cocoa pod husk (CC) and coconut shell (CN) was assessed in comparison with sand media (SS), under a range of hydraulic loading rates (HLR) (0.105-0.210 m3/m2.d) during a 9 weeks study period. The results at the end of week 7 under a HLR of 0.105m...
