Wastewater primary treatment adsorption

Ionizing radiation, gamma radiation source or electron beam, is an excellent tool for the purification of polluted water and wastewater.It involves the reaction of primary radiolytic water products, i.e., ( OH, e, H) with the pollutants and the formation of secondary short-hved species from the pollutants. The secondary process causes the formation of precipitates that absorb pollutants. The general principal is that radiolytic treatment, in combination with traditional methods such as flotation, coagulations, adsorption, and aeration, is employed for the purification of water...
