Development and testing of a silver chloride-impregnated activated carbon for aqueous removal and sequestration of iodide.

abstract：:Sediment borne pesticides are one of the major routes of transport of pesticides into the aquatic environment and could affect biota living closely in contact with it. Sediment residues of DDT were found to be easily adsorbed (95.0%) and were released in hard water (8.4%) and seawater (0.1%). DDT and DDE sediment resi...
