Removal of Mercury from Aqueous Solutions by Carbon Aerogel Electrodes
ISBN: 9783838319544 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The present work reviews and reports recent works using high specific area carbon as an electrode material for electrosorptive removal of metal ion from the waste-water. These aspects of high-area carbon electrode behaviour arise from properties of the interphasial double-layer at which electrosorption and charge accommodation can take place, with the latter observably influencing the former. For simple aromatic heterocyclic compounds, such carbon material exhibits high effectiveness for electrosorptive removal and, importantly, major changes of extents of sorption with applied potential or...

Electrodenitrification of Water Using the Enzyme Nitrate Reductase
ISBN: 9783838319513 / Angielski / Miękka / 92 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nitrate is a worldwide contaminant that causes environmental (eutrophication) and human health (methemoglobinemia, cancers) concerns. Very few techniques are available to eliminate it from natural environment and they suffer from major drawbacks, such as production of unwanted byproducts (toxins or brine). This project develops a new approach that could overcome these disadvantages and demonstrates the feasibility of using an enzyme and a mediator to transfer the electrons from different types of electrode to nitrate. The main advantage of this system is the production of a gaseous...

Trace Organic Removal by Nanofiltration and Reverse Osmosis Processes
ISBN: 9783838322100 / Angielski / Miękka / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This monograph delineates the retention mechanisms of emerging trace organic contaminants by several nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis membranes. Retention of neutral trace organics by a tight NF or RO membrane is dominated by steric (size) exclusion, whereas both electrostatic repulsion and steric exclusion govern the retention of negatively charged trace organics by a loose NF membrane. Speciation of trace organics may lead to a dramatic change in retention as a function of pH, with much greater retention observed for ionized, negatively charged trace organics. Retention of the...
