Serving Waynesboro, Augusta County & the Shenandoah Valley

Slide presentation reporting a mesocosm experiment using South River water to test biochar filters and adsorptive media structures for removing mercury. Treatments included a control, biochar filter, and adsorptive structures; mercury in the water column and accumulation in periphyton were measured. Biochar filters reduced water Hg and produced a 46% reduction in periphyton methylmercury.
