“…Carbonaceous nanomaterials. Lab-scale studies have demonstrated encouraging adsorption potential by C-ENMs of emerging contaminants such as pharmaceuticals from synthetic [366][367][368] and natural waters [369,370], as well as landfill leachate [371]. A combined coagulation-adsorption technique for removing EDCs was recently employed using SWCNT, MWCNTs, and powdered activated carbon but the results were similar to using adsorption alone [369].…”

“…C-ENMs have been shown to adsorb PPCPs such as bisphenol A [366,368,371], doxycycline hydrochloride [367], TBBPA [269], triclosan [372], ciprofloxacin [373], oxytetracycline [367,374], carbamazepine [375], norfloxacin [376], ibruprofen [372], and natural and synthetic estradiols [366,371,377]. Removal of EDCs by carbon-based ENMs is strongly dependent on the physicochemical properties of target pollutants such as aromaticity [367], octanol-water partitioning (K ow ) [366,371], sorbate concentration, and presence of natural organic matter (NOM) [372,378].…”

“…The results indicated that the negative influence of salinity on the adsorption of fluoroquinone should not be neglected since the salinity of wastewater usually below 3 g·L . Many researchers have found that increasing the ionic strength has a negative effect on the adsorption of various organic chemicals [21]. …”

Abstract:The occurrence of fluoroquinolone antibiotics in wastewater has drawn great attention. Adsorption of widely used fluoroquinolone antibiotics (enrofloxacin and ofloxacin) in wastewater using bamboo biochar was investigated. More than 99% of fluoroquinolone antibiotics were removed from the synthetic wastewater through adsorption. Adsorption capacities of bamboo biochar slightly changed when pH increased from 3.0 to 10.0. The adsorption capacity of bamboo biochar increased sharply when the initial concentration of enrofloxacin or ofloxacin increased from 1 to 200 mg L

The qualities of waters are constantly diminishing due to release of toxic components into the environment. It is very important to treat wastewater in order to remove pollutants and improve water quality. Generally, adsorption technology has proven to be one of the most effective techniques in the separation and removal of a wide variety of organic and inorganic pollutants from wastewater. Recently, carbon nanomaterials such as fullerene, carbon nanotubes (CNT) and graphene-family have become promising adsorbents for water treatment. This chapter compiles relevant knowledge about the experimental and theoretical adsorption activities of fullerene, CNT and graphene-family as nanoadsorbents for removal of organic and inorganic environmental pollutants.
