Carbon-Based Materials and Composites for Water and Wastewater Treatment
discusses the potential utilization of carbon-based materials and composites, which are effective in the removal of various type of contaminants in water bodies due to their unique features, such as: earth-abundance, recyclability, low-cost of production processes and stability.
Carbon can be derived from many types of raw materials and process techniques.
The book covers various source of raw materials from synthetic or natural precursors that have high carbon content and their synthesis processes.
The synthesized carbon is used in different type of water and wastewater treatment technologies, including as adsorbents, membranes, photocatalysts, electrodes, and fenton-catalyst.
The book covers the application and efficiency of these carbon-based technologies in the removal of different type of pollutants from water bodies.
The feasibility, practicability and economic aspects of using carbon-based materials in water and wastewater treatment are also described in the book
