Activated carbon-polyethyleneimine-alginate composite fiber for scavenging pharmaceuticals with different charges from aqueous solutions
Dangi Y., Choi J., Lim C., Song M., Han M., Lin X., (Corresponding) Yun Y.
Topic:
Water treatment
Activated carbon (AC) is a potential adsorbent for water purification, though it is difficult to separate after use. To solve this problem, for the first time, the ternary composite fiber (ACPEIA) of AC, polyethyleneimine (PEI), and alginate (A) was fabricated as a multifunctional adsorbent for...Read more
Application of solar photo-Fenton oxidation coupled with granular activated carbon as a viable option for the removal of contaminants of emerging concern in the urban wastewater of India
Karaolia P., Korelidou A., (Corresponding) Fatta-Kassinos D.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
It has been estimated that approximately 62 billion litres of sewage are generated every day in India, with only 37% of sewage being treated (Saxena et al., 2021). Wastewater treatment issues such as dysfunctional UWTPs with many of them operating at low service levels compared to the design...Read more
Rapid adsorption of diclofenac by polyaniline-coated carbon nanofiber
Xu H., (Corresponding) Xia M., Wang F.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
In this work, polyaniline-coated carbon nanofiber with acid treatment (named CNFA@PANI) composite was synthesized and used to eliminate diclofenac from the water environment. Thanks to the abundant amino functional groups and benzene-ring structures, the as-prepared CNFA@PANI composite presented...Read more
