The book covers adsorption as an applicable method, highlighting its advantages and disadvantages. It investigates various adsorbents ranging from traditional activated carbons, modified forms of clays, metal oxides, polymer resins, and more advanced materials such as graphene-based, MOF, nano-matrices, and composite materials as potential sorbents for the adsorption of antibiotics from aqueous solutions.
In addition, the book covers biological microorganisms that have been used to remove antibiotics from wastewater and presents biopolymers, biowaste and living cells potentially and practically suitable for this purpose. For all adsorbents, the book explains preparation methods, main properties, modification techniques to increase antibiotic removal efficiency, mechanisms in antibiotic removal, advantages and limitations. It also presents adsorption-desorption in batch and continuous mode, optimized operating parameters, kinetic and equilibrium adsorption, and regeneration studies.
- Provides production and modification methods of conventional and non-conventional adsorbent materials for antibiotics adsorption from aqueous systems
- Considers the effects of antibiotics type and porous and chemical properties of adsorbents to improve the sorption capacity and ease of regeneration
- Features recent advances in the use of biowaste materials and biosorption processes for green removal of antibiotics from wastewater
