RADU ARDELEAN, CORNELIU-MIRCEA DAVIDESCU, ADRIANA POPA, GHEORGHE ILIA Adsorption Characteristics of Some Polymeric Materials with Olefin Groups used for Removal of Phenol and p-nitrophenol from Aqueous Solutions
Abstract:
Removal and recovery of aromatic pollutants from water by solid adsorbents have been of considerable interest. In this paper, adsorption of phenol and p-nitrophenol from aqueous solution onto a polymeric adsorbent with olefin groups at temperatures of 24oC was studied. The weak interactions between p-nitrophenol molecules and the polymeric adsorbents in batch adsorption experiments were observed. Keywords: polymeric adsorbents, phenol, p-nitrophenol, removal
