Granular pesticides herbicides

Use of granular activated carbon (GAC) is considered to be the best currently available technology for removing low-solubility contaminants such as disinfection by-products (usually from chlorination) that include trihalomethanes (THM), detergents, pesticides, herbicides, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, and some trace metals. The amendments to the Safe Drinking Water Act. state that other treatment technologies must be at least as effective as GAC [66]. 

Fluid fertilizers are excellent carriers of pesticides and are widely used in the application of herbicides. By using fluid fertilizer-pesticide mixtures, it is possible to reduce the number of applicator passes across the field. Because fluid fertilizers can be uniformly applied, it is possible also to uniformly apply the pesticide for uniform weed or insect control, which is not always possible when using granular fertilizers.
