Stepwise Adsorption of Phenanthrene at the Fly Ash–Water Interface as Affected by Solution Chemistry: Experimental and Modeling Studies

Abstract

Fly ash (FA) is predominantly generated from coal-fired power plants. Contamination during disposal of FA can cause significant environmental problems. Knowledge about the interaction of FA and hydrophobic organic pollutants in the environment is very limited. This study investigated the adsorption of phenanthrene at the interface of FA and water. The performance of phenanthrene adsorption on FA and the effects of various aqueous chemistry …
