In Situ Performance of Granular Activated Carbon for Sampling Viruses and Bacteria from Wastewater: Toward Quantitative Passive Sampling for Wastewater-based Epidemiology
2025-04-15
Abstract excerpt
Expanding the WBE footprint to include low-resource settings where small, informal, and ad-hoc wastewater systems and high burdens of disease are co-located requires resource-efficient and adaptable methods. To that end, we deployed passive samplers made of granular activated carbon (GAC) into raw influent at a small wastewater treatment plant continuously over 90 days. Detections of SARS-CoV-2 RNA, respiratory sy...
