Abstract
The habilitation thesis presents the original and relevant results in the field of capitalization of fly ash, with application in chemical engineering. In this thesis new synthesized low-cost sorbents, based on Holboca ash, were comparative studied for the removal of heavy metals from aqueous solutions. The synthesis method was very simple under room temperature to high conditions and final product can be safely disposed. The ashes are produced in power plants and represent the largest source of energy. The production of this material (the by-product) is estimated to be more than 370 Mt last years. Ash can be modified and used as sorbent efficient for the removal of heavy metals and dyes from solutions. The modified ash has composition similar to natural zeolites. The ash and modified ash present low cost and efficiently adsorbents, which can be used for removal pollutants from water, gas and soil.
