Environmental Chemistry II
Activated carbon adsorption is a process where pollutants are removed from liquids or gases by attracting and binding them to the surface of activated carbon particles. This technique is widely used for environmental remediation due to the high surface area and porosity of activated carbon, which enhances its ability to trap contaminants. The effectiveness of this method is particularly notable in various physical remediation techniques that focus on extracting or treating contaminated groundwater and soil.
congrats on reading the definition of activated carbon adsorption. now let's actually learn it.
