On increasing the sorption capacity of semi-cokes with acid regenerates of water-desalting ion-exchange plants

Abstract

In modern conditions, the problem of environmental protection has become one of the decisive factors determining the further development of mankind, along with technological and economic aspects. The approach is most effective when disposing the waste from one production provides an effective solution to the problem of environmental protection in other industries. The article investigates the possibility of using the acidic waste generated from the operation of ion exchange plants at power plants to increase the sorption capacity of carbon sorbents for phenol by changing the chemistry of the surface of coal. It has been established that an increase in the sorption capacity of active carbon ABG provides additional adsorption and increases the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of wastewater treatment from phenol.
