Elution behaviour of metals from carbon SAIMM
A laboratoryscale elution rig was commissioned to simulate Zadra and AARL carbon elution conditions, see Figure 1. The majority of the system was constructed from stainless steel tubing and Swagelok fittings. The elution column was ~600 mm long with an internal diameter of 25 mm, and a capacity of ~100 g of granulated activated carbon per experiment.
