Nowadays, the use of biofiltration is increasing every day. On the other hand, the physicochemical filtration process is a successful technology in numerous applications in the field of water treatment. This issue of the journal is focused on the treatment of different types of effluents through filtration: Drinking water and wastewater. Different technologies are analysed: Filtration through biochar from agricultural by-products; biological active carbon (BAC); electroadsorption using a commercial granular activated carbon as the adsorbent; filtration through sand, anthracite and expanded clay; granular activated carbon (GAC) as part of a tertiary treatment for wastewater reuse.Technology: general issuesbicssc"chonta" pulpadsorptionanthraciteautonomous prototypebackwashbacteriological contamination of waterbed fluidizationbiocharbiofiltrationbiological stabilitybromidescadmiumclean-bed expansioncorn cobdrinking waterelectroadsortionemerging contaminantsexpanded clayFiltralitefiltrationgranular activated carbongranular filter mediaheadlossleadMono Multipeanut shellreclaimed watersafe agricultural reusesandthrialomethaneswater treatmentTechnology: general issuesOsorio Franciscoedt1303782Osorio FranciscoothBOOK9910557534303321Biofiltration and Physicochemical Filtration for Water Treatment3027213UNINA
