Abstract: Activated carbon is used to remove contaminants onto the surface of a filter. This method is effective in removal of particular organics from raw water as well as wastewater. The efficiency of activated carbon is depends on the nature of activated carbon used, constituents in water bodies, and application methods with operating parameters. There are activated carbon filters that can be designed for household, community and industry requirements. Activated carbon is prepared from various materials and it is used in removal of various contaminants from wastewater. The current paper discuss about the existing and new advancements in the activation and carbon technology and their applications in water and wastewater treatments.

Keywords: wastewater, activated carbon preparation, wastewater treatment, its efficiency
