  • What is a powdered activated carbon (PAC) dosing system?
  • To combat this, TRILITY was contracted to design, fabricate, install and commission a fully functional, standalone automated powdered activated carbon (PAC) dosing system. PAC is used in drinking water treatment to remove taste and odour compounds. It is removed later in the process either by sedimentation or filtered out.
  • How is PAC used in drinking water treatment?
  • PAC is used in drinking water treatment to remove taste and odour compounds. It is removed later in the process either by sedimentation or filtered out. The associated works included chemical storage, process tanks, buildings and access roads, along with a range of integration works to connect into existing pipes, electrical and control systems.
  • Why do we need a PAC dosing system?
  • They provide water and wastewater services for approximately 72,000 people across the region. During the warmer months, low river flows can impact the taste of the treated water. A PAC dosing system was installed to remove any such taste and odour, thereby ensuring water quality.
  • What is the PAC dose?
  • The PAC dose in all strategies was stated at 40 mg/dm3. In the floc strength experiments, after the flocculation stage the sample was vigorously mixed at 200 rpm for 60 s and then left for 30 min sedimentation.
