Poly(N-vinyl imidazole) (PVI) has been grafted onto carboxymethyl starch (CMS) in aqueous solution using potassium persulfate (KPS) as initiator. Reaction parameters that affect grafting efficiency and percentage grafting such as monomer and initiator concentration, the reaction temperature and time were

The purpose of this work is to investigate an advanced water treatment system changes on disinfects by-products (DBPs) precursors removal efficiencies of treatment plant and associated trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAA(5)) formation and assimilable organic carbon (AOC) in reduction
Carboxymethyl starch (CMS) was obtained as a product of the reaction of starch and monochloroacetic acid (MCA) in the presence of sodium hydroxide. The influence of the molar ratio of NaOH/AGU, the molar ratio of MCA/AGU, the reaction time, reaction
Chemical disinfection of water generates harmful chemical compounds, known as disinfection by-products (DBPs). One class of DBPs is constituted by haloacetic acids (HAAs), the second major group in prevalence (after trihalomethanes) detected in finished drinking water. In this article, we
For the first time, haloacetic acids and aromatic acetic acids were extracted from wastewater samples using electromembrane extraction (EME). A thin layer of toluene immobilized on the walls of a polypropylene membrane envelope served as an artificial supported liquid membrane
