Selective Adsorbents for Improved Removal of Malodorous Compounds

  • Conference paper
Role of Interfaces in Environmental Protection

Part of the book series: NATO Science Series ((NAIV,volume 24))

Abstract

This work presents different methods of adsorbents characterisation. Their use towards improved removal of malodorous compounds is considered. These methods are applied to different modified silica gels. At first, the synthesis conditions were optimised using aminopropylsilanes. Afterwards the stability of the samples against ethanol and water was examined. The modified silica gels are suggested to be selective adsorbents in the field of odour control.
