Adsorption Characteristics of Bisphenol A onto Carbonaceous Materials Produced from Wood Chips as Organic Waste

Removal of Fluoride Ion by Bone Char Produced from Animal Biomass

“…The basicity and acidity did not depend on the carbonization temperature or on the species. The iodine adsorption capacity is in proportion to the specific surface area of the carbonaceous materials 12) . The iodine adsorption capacity of PB was highest and that of CB was the lowest.…”

Study of Removal Effect of Bisphenol A and .BETA.-Estradiol by Porous Carbon

“…1) Removal methods of EDCs from water, such as electrochemical methods, 2,3) and a method using a biological membrane 4) have been reported. Although the removal performance for EDCs by activated carbon has also been reported, [5][6][7][8][9][10] Nakanishi et al 11) has only reported the relationship between the carbonization temperature of woody carbon, such as bamboo charcoal and sugi charcoal, and the removal performance. Surface properties such as the pore structure and chemical structure of woody porous carbon change due to the carbonization temperature, 12) so that the adsorption properties of chemicals are different based on the carbonization temperature.…”

Adsorption of bisphenol A on lignin: effects of solution chemistry

“…Although the adsorption efficiency of BPA on lignin is a little weaker than that of some reported activated carbon sorbents , it is still much higher than that of some other activated carbons (23.5-188.9 mg/g), porous carbon and carbonaceous materials prepared by combustion (2.1-41.8 mg/g) (Dong et al 2010;Bautista-Toledo et al 2005;Nakanishi et al 2002). Moreover, the low cost of lignin obtained as by-product, especially compared with activated carbon which is often currently used in wastewater treatment, provides it the advantage to be used as an economical and efficient adsorbent for the removal of BPA from waters.…”
