Elementary Iodine-Doped Activated Carbon as an Oxidizing Agent for the Treatment of Arsenic-Enriched Drinking Water

An activated carbon impregnated with elementary iodine (I<sub>2</sub>), named IodAC, characterized by oxidation capability, was developed and applied to oxidize arsenite, As(III), to arsenate, As(V), in arsenic-rich waters. Batch and column experiments were conducted to test the oxidatio...
