“…Figure 5 depicts the impact of the molecular size on the adsorption of nitrosamines in the copper modification NaY zeolite. NDMA, NPYR, and NHMI have the molecular diameter of 0.45, 0.56, and 0.59 nm, respectively [12,24], so that the adsorbed amount of three nitrosamines is diverse. For NaY when the accumulated amount of nitrosamines arrived 1.25 mmol•g −1 , 70.5% of NHMI, 94.6% of NDMA, or NPYR could be adsorbed.…”
