Opis

This book concerns with the use of Iraqi Clay (attapulgite) for the removal of hazardous organic water pollutants, namely o-nitrophenol, m-nitrophenol and p-nitrophenol from their aqueous solutions. Attapulgite was modified by surfactant (hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (HDTMA)). Attapulgite and its modified form (A-HDTMA), were purified, sampled and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), FTIR spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) technique.
