Deciphering the effect of citric acid on arsenic adsorption with phosphorene in aqueous solution

Abstract This paper presents the first attempt to explore the potential of phosphorene as an adsorbent for arsenic [AS(III) and As(V)] removal under competition adsorption with citric acid (CA). In this study, the phosphorene was prepared by the exfoliation method. Results showed that CA reduced As(...
