Abstract
Metalloid arsenic in its inorganic form features the most toxicity in its mobile form, water. Arsenic in water is a concern and a threat to humanity. The water containing arsenic is aptly termed as ‘devil’s water’. Significant developments have occurred in the past few decades regarding water purification. Researchers have developed various materials to remove arsenic from water. Remediation of arsenic through different technologies (viz. adsorption, precipitation and membrane) has been met. The materials used in these technologies for conducting remediation tasks are identified. The present study covers from activated carbon to polymeric membranes. Hybrid technologies are relevant in this direction. A few field deployments are also covered.
期刊介绍:
The Bulletin of Materials Science is a bi-monthly journal being published by the Indian Academy of Sciences in collaboration with the Materials Research Society of India and the Indian National Science Academy. The journal publishes original research articles, review articles and rapid communications in all areas of materials science. The journal also publishes from time to time important Conference Symposia/ Proceedings which are of interest to materials scientists. It has an International Advisory Editorial Board and an Editorial Committee. The Bulletin accords high importance to the quality of articles published and to keep at a minimum the processing time of papers submitted for publication.
