In this review, special interest was devoted to provide information on the surrogate
parameters expressing both quality and quantity of organic matter for the understanding of …

This is a state-of-science review of interrelationships between the sorption/desorption
behaviors and chemical structures of natural organic matter (NOM) matrices associated with …

High surface area, a microporous structure, and a high degree of surface reactivity make
activated carbons versatile adsorbents, particularly effective in the adsorption of organic and …

The latest addition to this lauded series, this reference collects pioneering research on the
chemistry and physics of carbon surfaces and the structural properties of carbons. Written by …

The unit process approach, common in the field of chemical engineering, was introduced
about 1962 to the field of environmental engineering. An understanding of unit processes is …

Several pathways have been employed to systematically modify two granular activated
carbons (GACs), F400 (coal-based) and Macro (wood-based), for examining adsorption of …

Uptake of two synthetic organic contaminants (SOCs), trichloroethylene and
trichlorobenzene, by one coal-based and one wood-based granular activated carbon (GAC) …

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were thermally treated and were employed as
adsorbents to study their characterizations and adsorption performance of natural organic …

Both the primary chemical structure and the conformational structure of humic substances
are still a matter of debate. A traditional assumption is that humic substances are large …

Seasonal algal blooms in surface water release a significant amount of algal organic matter
(AOM), which alters the composition of dissolved organic matter (DOM). AOM affects the …
