Removal of radon from indoor air by activated carbon and solid desiccants.

Author(s) : HASSAN N. M., HINES A. L., GHOSH T. K., LOYALKA S. K., NOVOSEL D.

Summary

The adsorption capacity of a coal-based activated carbon for radon from dry nitrogen is higher than that of either silica gel or molecular sieves. However, solid desiccant systems employing either silica gel or molecular sieves can be integrated with an activated carbon bed to reduce radon concentration levels in homes.
