Nitrate uptake by p-phosphonic acid calix[8]arene stabilized graphene
Abstract
In situ sonic probe exfoliated graphene sheets in the presence of various concentrations of p-phosphonic acid calix[8]arene are effective in removing nitrate from aquatic effluents, with the efficiency increasing for higher ratios of calixarene to graphite. Mild sonication of the nitrate-adsorbed material releases some nitrate ions back to the effluent. © 2013 The Royal Society of Chemistry.
