Adsorption of selenite and selenate by nanocrystalline aluminum oxide, neat and impregnated in chitosan beads.

Jamila S. Yamani, +2 more
- 01 Mar 2014 - 
TL;DR: The results indicate that, in order to maintain consistent removal in more realistic systems, a pre-treatment process to manage sulfate will be necessary as indicated for other adsorbents implemented for selenium adsorption in aqueous systems.

Enhanced adsorptive removal of fluoride using mesoporous alumina

Grace Lee, +3 more
- 01 Jan 2010 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, two different kinds of mesoporous alumina samples were prepared using aluminum tri-sec-butoxide in the presence of either cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (MA-1) or stearic acid as a structure-directing agent, and tested for adsorptive removal of fluoride in water.
