Abstract:In this work, adsorptions of Methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE) onto two novel adsorbents, i.e. nano-perfluorooctyl alumina was prepared using nano-γ-alumina (nano-PFOAL G ) and nano-boehmite (nano-PFOAL B ) as the supports were investigated. The surface areas of the nano-γ-alumina and nano-boehmite were determined as 265.7 and 319.5 m 2 /g, respectively. The equilibrium adsorption behavior of the nanoadsorbents was studied for adsorption of (MTBE) in a wide range (100-1,750 mg/L) of aqueous phase concentratio… 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.
