Highly effective removal of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in water with DBD-plasma-enhanced rice husks

Abstract Adsorption is regarded as an efficient method to eliminate per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances from an aqueous solution. In the present investigation, an adsorbent based on rice husks (RHs) was successfully prepared by phosphoric acid (PA) activation and dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) p...
