Development of novel charcoals for the sorption and transformation of heavy metals in contaminated land
The aim ofthis research was to develop cheap and readily available charcoals as a remediation tool for contaminated land and water. Whereas (activated) charcoal is well known for its toxic adsorbing properties, relatively little is known about how the choice of source material affects the sorption p...
