Recent Investigations for Phenol Removal from Effluent: An Insight into Research and Studies from 2013 to 2017
Journal Title: International Journal of Science and Healthcare Research - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
Various methods for phenol removal include physico-chemical, biological and chemical methods. The author has carried out review on various methods for phenol removal earlier in 2013. According to his review then, adsorption was the prominent research area in the phenol removal, followed by photochemical and chemical methods. The research on batch, column studies with low cost adsorbents has been reported by the author. Column studies were carried out to optimize parameters like flow rate, bed height, initial concentration. This review focuses on the research and studies carried out for phenol removal since 2013. The studies indicated that many new investigations are reported. However it was noted that many investigations are repetitive. There needs to be scale up studies and pilot plant studies for implementation of the research in actual practice.
