Development of adsorbent from waste materials for air pollution control
This work involves studies on how to convert sewage sludge, a waste material generated in sewage treatment processes, into an adsorbent for odorous gas removal. The basic method of adsorbent preparation is by pyrolysis in nitrogen gas. Effects of heating temperature and residence time are investigat...
