How Ionic Liquid Gels Work on the Removal of Bisphenol A from Wastewater
Salvatore Marullo, Francesca D’Anna
Abstract
] could be reused 37 times, maintaining a removal efficiency higher than 96%. It was loaded in a sequential system of syringes to treat flowing aqueous phases, removing 60% of BPA in 30 min. We also embedded the gel in the dialysis membrane and observed a removal efficiency of 85% after 48 h.
