Abstract
This work aimed at the synthesis of carbon nanotubes grafted with a copolymer of acrylic acid and acrylamide (CNT-AaAm) as novel and efficient sorbent for phenol removal from aqueous solution. The CNTs were prepared by the method of Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). The prepared CNTs were characterized by the use of XRD, TEM, FTIR, and SEM. The chemical and morphological characterization of the synthesized CNT-AaAm was carried out. The impact of the operational parameters on the batch adsorption performance was inspected and optimized. The prepared adsorbent had a great adsorption/desorption performance for four cycles. It can be drawn a conclusion form all findings that the synthesized CNT-AaAm has a great prospective as a novel and influential adsorbent for phenol removal from polluted-wastewaters.
