Synthesis of activated carbons and nanoparticle-loaded activated carbons derived from bio-wastes for the removal of ibuprofen drug from water
Abstract
Biowaste-derived activated carbons and their composites exhibit high ibuprofen adsorption performance. Several possible adsorption mechanisms are involved, such as electrostatic interaction, H bonding, π–π interaction and pore-filling.
Fields of Study & Subjects
Adsorption and biosorption for pollutant removal
Pharmaceutical and Antibiotic Environmental Impacts
Carbon Dioxide Capture Technologies
