Carbon Sorbents for Technogenic Pollution Treatment

The monograph is devoted to the study of advanced carbon materials - including activated carbons, nanostructured carbon materials, biocarbons, porous carbon, and their composites - as effective sorbents for the purification of natural environments from technogenic pollutants. The book examines the mechanisms of physical and chemical adsorption of contaminants, methods for modifying carbon materials to enhance their adsorption capacity and selectivity, as well as experimental and theoretical approaches for evaluating their properties. Particular attention is given to modern achievements and current challenges in the field of environmental remediation using carbon-based sorbents. The monograph also highlights the relationship between the structure, surface chemistry, and adsorption performance of the developed materials.The monograph is intended for researchers and engineers working in the fields of environmental technologies, carbon chemistry, materials science, and purification of natural environments. It may also be useful for lecturers, PhD students, graduate students, and undergraduate students specializing in related disciplines.
