Abstract:A novel hybrid adsorption-electrodialysis (AdED) system
to remove
environmentally harmful boron from geothermal brine was designed and
effective operating parameters such as pH, voltage, and flow rate
were studied. A cellulose-based adsorbent was synthesized from glycidyl
methacrylate (GMA) grafted cellulose and modified with a boron selective
n-methyl-d-glucamine (NMDG) group and characterized with
SEM-EDX, FT-IR, and TGA analyses. Batch adsorption studies revealed
that cellulose-based adsorbent showed a rema… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
