This is the first volume on adsorption using green adsorbents and
is written by international contributors who are the leading
experts in the adsorption field. The first volume provides an
overview of fundamentals and design of adsorption processes. For
people who are new to the field, the book starts by two overview
chapters presenting the principles and properties of wastewater
treatment and adsorption processes. The book also provides a
comprehensive source of knowledge on acid-base properties of
biosorbents. It discusses fractal-like kinetic models for
fluid-solid adsorption, reports on the chemical characterization of
oxidized activated carbons for metal removal, and the use of
magnetic biosorbents in water treatment. Furthermore, the
thermodynamic properties of metals adsorption by green adsorbents,
and biosorption of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and organic
pollutants are reviewed, and finally the recent trends and impact
of nanomaterials as green adsorbent and potential catalysts for
environmental applications are summarized. The audience for this
book includes students, environmentalists, engineers, water
scientists, civil and industrial personnel who wish to specialize
in adsorption technology. Academically, this book will be of use to
students in chemical and environmental engineering who wish to
learn about adsorption and its fundamentals. It has also been
compiled for practicing engineers who wish to know about recent
developments on adsorbent materials in order to promote further
research toward improving and developing newer adsorbents and
processes for the efficient removal of pollutants from industrial
effluents. It is hoped that the book will serve as a readable and
useful presentation not only for undergraduate and postgraduate
students but also for the water scientists and engineers and as a
convenient reference handbook in the form of numerous recent
examples and appended information.
