Book Description

Carbon-Based Materials and Composites for Water and Wastewater Treatment discusses the potential utilization of carbon-based materials and composites for the removal of various type of contaminants in water bodies due to their unique features, such as earth-abundance, recyclability, low-cost of production processes, and stability. As carbon can be derived from many types of raw materials and process techniques, the book covers various sources of raw materials from synthetic or natural precursors that have high carbon content, along with their synthesis processes. This synthesized carbon is used in different types of water and wastewater treatment technologies, including adsorbents, membranes, photocatalysts, electrodes, and fenton-catalysts.

The book covers the application and efficiency of these carbon-based technologies in the removal of different type of pollutants from water bodies. The feasibility, practicability and economic aspects of using carbon-based materials in water and wastewater treatment are also described in the book

  • Covers the trends and factors that influence the development of carbon-based materials for water and wastewater treatment
  • Reviews the processes involved in the preparation of carbon materials derived from natural and synthetic precursors
  • Includes commentary from leading research and industrial experts in the field of water and wastewater treatment
