Arsenic adsorption from water : review of technologies and development of synthetic granular adsorbents

Arsenic (As) is a known carcinogen and a long standing problem in purifying water from consumption. High As concentrations have been reported in numerous countries like USA, China, Chile, Bangladesh, Taiwan, Mexico, Argentina, Poland, Canada, Hungary, Japan and India. This report explores the feasib...
