Abstract

Micropollutants in the environment are still a topical issue in the field of water management at present. Since micropollutants in water can be harmful not only to the environment but also to humans, new technologies are constantly being tested to eliminate them. Standard treatment technologies for removing micropollutants from water include adsorption, advanced oxidation processes and membrane processes. For the experimental determination of the efficiency of the adsorbent Bayoxide E33, selected micropollutants were removed by adsorption. Micro-pollution removal efficiency was compared in removing three micropollutants, namely a metal, pharmaceutical and pesticide. The removal of the metal through the Bayoxide E33 material was successful, while the pharmaceutical and pesticide were not removed because of the occurrence of slight desorption during removal.
