Author: Venkataraman Sivasankar (Editor) Full Title: Surface Modified Carbons As Scavengers For Fluoride From Water Publisher: Springer; 1st ed. 2016 edition (August 20, 2016) Year: 2016 ISBN-13: 9783319406862 (978-3-319-40686-2), 9783319406848 (978-3-319-40684-8) ISBN-10: 3319406868, 3319406841 Pages: 223 Language: English Genre: Pollution and Remediation File type: PDF (True) Quality: 10/10 Price: 155.99 € This book discusses the problems and feasible remediation of fluoride contamination in groundwater. The book investigates applications of various carbons derived from bio-mass and bio-polymers. It also inquires into surface modified carbons that use inorganic ions to help remove excess fluoride ions in drinking water and wastewater effluents. The compliance of kinetic and isotherm models with fluoride sorption is covered, and the suggested mechanisms of defluoridation by surface modified carbon materials is described. ------------- Our members see more.
