Die Verwendung von Biertreber als Biosorptionsmittel für die Aufbereitung von schwermetallhaltigen Wässern
Abstract
Human activity releases toxic heavy metals into water, threatening ecosystems and human health. Brewer’s spent grain was mechanochemically esterificated to improve its adsorption capacity. Adsorptionisotherms and fixed-bed adsorber showed high Pb(II) uptake and promising results for Cd(II) and Ni(II). Modification enhanced capacity but reduced selectivity and kinetics, indicating a changed mechanism.
Fields of Study & Subjects
