Advanced Water Treatment
1st Edition
Adsorption
Description
Advanced Water Treatment: Adsorption discusses the application of adsorption in water purification. The book reviews research findings consisted of the preparation of five different nano/microcellulose-based adsorbents, their characterization, the study of adsorption kinetics and isotherms, the determination of adsorption mechanisms, and an evaluation of adsorbents’ regeneration properties. The book describes modification microfibrillated celluloce (MFC) and the use of succinic anhydride modified mercerized nanocellulose, and aminosilane and hydroxyapatite modified nanostructured MFC for the removal of heavy metals from aqueous solutions. It also describes the use of aminosilane, epoxy and hydroxyapatite modified MFC as a promising alternative for H2S removal from aqueous solutions as well new findings on the adsorption properties of carbonated hydroxyapatite modified MFC as multifunctional adsorbent for the removal of both cations and anions ions from water. The purpose is the delivery of the latest information on advanced water treatment methods to be used by researchers and professionals involved involved in the research and development of water treatment processes.
