Research Progress in Sludge Based Adsorbents for Treatment of Antibiotic Wastewater
The sludge from sewage treatment plants contains various organic,inorganic and other components,which can be used to prepare adsorbents for sewage treatment.In this article,the basic principle of using sludge based adsorbents to remove antibiotics from water was introduced as well as the current treatment technology for antibiotics in water in China.The advantages and disadvantages of various technical methods were reviewed,and the research progress of adsorption method and its application for treating antibiotics in water was discussed.The study of using sludge as adsorbent to remove antibiotics from water can not only achieve the resource utilization of sludge in China,but also provide ideas for the adsorption of antibiotics in wastewater.In the future,emphasis should be placed on strengthening research on economically efficient and environmentally friendly activation agents.
