Quantification of microbial degradation activities in biological activated carbon filters by reverse stable isotope labelling

Abstract Biological activated carbon (BAC) filters are frequently used in drinking water production for removing dissolved organic carbon (DOC) via adsorption of organic compounds and microbial degradation. However, proper methods are still missing to distinguish the two processes. Here, we introduc...
