Adsorption of three selected pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) onto MIL-101(Cr)/natural polymer composite beads
Zhuo Ning,Lan Yaqian,Weiben Yang,Zhen Yang,Xiaomin Li,Xia Zhou,Yang Liu,Shen Jiachun,Xuntong Zhang +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the adsorption of three pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) (benzoic acid (BEN), ibuprofen (IBU) and ketoprofen(KET)) onto the two composite beads was investigated and compared with pristine SA and CS beads.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesized magnetic nanoparticles coated zeolite for the adsorption of pharmaceutical compounds from aqueous solution using batch and column studies.
TL;DR: The initial concentration does not appear to exert a noticeable effect on the removal efficiency of the studied PPCPs at low concentrations, but it showed less removal efficiency during high concentration of P PCPs especially for Ibuprofen, and MNCZ showed high removal efficiency than other used processes at DWTPs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of tetracycline from aqueous solutions onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes with different oxygen contents
TL;DR: It is indicated that surface properties and aqueous solution chemistry play important roles in TC adsorption on MWCNTs and when pH is beyond the range (3.3–8.0), the electrostatic interactions caused the decrease of TC adsOrption capacity.
