Key Points

Activated bauxite residue removes PFAS from water effectively, promoting better waste management.
Activated bauxite residue achieved significant PFAS removal, with potential implications for wastewater treatment.
Assessment of bauxite residue as an adsorbent included various conditions to enhance PFAS uptake.
This approach highlights the potential environmental benefits of repurposing waste materials in treatment processes.

Implication

This research demonstrates that activated bauxite residue effectively removes PFAS from water, suggesting enhanced wastewater treatment capabilities.

Abstract

This study revealed that activated bauxite residue (ABR) can remove PFAS from water, and its utilization for wastewater treatment can promote better management of bauxite residue waste.
