Re-utilization of drinking water treatment residuals (DWTR): a review focused on the adsorption of inorganic and organic contaminants in wastewater and soil

Environ. Sci.: Water Res. Technol., 2024, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D3EW00927K, Critical Review
Nelson Belzile, Yu-Wei Chen
Drinking water treatment residuals (DWTRs) show versatile adsorption properties for the removal of contaminants from wastewater and soil. Most adsorption studies are based on synthetic well-controlled solutions instead of real wastewater samples.
