Removal of Organic Micro-pollutants Present in the Effluent of Wastewater Treatment Plant by Zeolite Granules

Zeolites can be used for the adsorption of organic micropollutants (OMPs) from water. In this research, the potential applications of zeolite granules for OMP removal in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) were discovered. The adsorption of 18 target OMPs by zeolite granules was fully studied in batch and column experiments. The adsorption...

High-silica zeolites for adsorption of organic micro-pollutants in water treatment: A review

High-silica zeolites have been found to be effective adsorbents for the removal of organic micro-pollutants (OMPs) from impaired water, including various pharmaceuticals, personal care products, industrial chemicals, etc. In this review, the properties and fundamentals of high-silica zeolites are summarised. Recent research on mechanisms and...
