| Research Abstract |
To clarify the adsorption capacity of viruses onto activated carbon, which is normally used for removal of trace organic components contained in drinking water sources, and the infectivity changes of adsorbed viruses inside activated carbon pores, adsorption experiments, desorption experiments and field studies were conducted, and based on the obtained results, the effects of pore size distribution of activated carbon and coexisting organic matter were investigated.
