Physical and chemical properties of natural clay deposits

Abstract

The problem of creating and using sorption materials is relevant for the practice of
modern chemistry, biotechnology, medicine and agriculture. Knowledge of the physical and chemical
laws of the processes of carbonation, activation, as well as sorption and desorption is of particular
importance in the case of nanostructured carbon sorbent for highly effective treatment of water
contaminated with pesticides, as well as for reducing the concentration of cytokines in the blood
of patients with sepsis. It is of great practical importance to obtain adsorbents using a carbon
sorbent to significantly reduce the concentrations of heavy substances, which is very important for
the Western regions of Kazakhstan. Thus, it is currently relevant to develop such sorbents that
would have high mechanical strength and withstand high fluid pressure during operation, have a
large capacity and high wear resistance, allowing them to work for a year or more. Based on the
above, the goal of our research is to create new modified carbon sorbents for industrial use for
wastewater treatment.
