PERIODATE AND HYPOBROMITE MODIFICATION OF SOUTHERN PINE WOOD TO IMPROVE SORPTION OF COPPER ION

Milled southern pine wood was modified with sequential treatments of sodium periodate and sodium hypobromite for the purpose of improving copper ion (Cu2+) sorption capacity of the wood when tested in 24-h equilibrium batch tests. The modified wood provided additional carboxyl groups to those in the...
