Water purification with sintered porous materials fabricated at 400 degrees C from sea bottom sediments.
Water purification with sintered porous materials fabricated at 400℃ from sea bottom sediments

A sintering technology for preparing porous materials from sea bottom sediments was developed for use in water purification. The purpose of the present study was to develop methods for converting the sea bottom sediments dredged from Ago Bay into value-added recycled products. The sintered products fabricated at 400 degrees C were found to be very effective adsorbents for the removal of heavy metals.
