%X The aim of this study consisted of removal of capecitabine (CCB), a cytostatic that is often used in cancer therapy and its presence in water exhibited negative impact and risk on the human health. Granular activated carbon (GAC) was tested as sorbent in batch system for CCB removal from water, considering its common usage in water/wastewater treatment technology. Influence of operation variables, e.g, pH, GAC dose and CCB initial concentrations, was studied to optimize GAC-based sorption for CCB removal.
