Graphene Characterization and Its Use to Reduce Trihalomethanes (THMs) in Drinking Water in Puerto Rico
Abstract This chapter mainly focuses on the reduction of trihalomethanes (THMs) in drinking water in Puerto Rico. Three different nanostructured materials (Graphene, mordenite and multiwalled carbon nanotubes) were used to reduce the THMs formation by adsorption in specific contact time. The results showed that graphene is the best nanomaterial to reduce THMs in drinking water. Graphene can reduce THMs 80 parts per billion (ppb) in about 2 h.
