Wide use of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) as fuel oxygenates leads to worldwide environment contamination with this compound basically due to fuel leaks from storage or pipelines. Presence of MTBE in drinking water is of high environmental and social concern. Existing methods for MTBE removal from water have a number of limitations which can be possibly overcome in the future with use of emerging technologies. This work aims to provide an updated overview of recent developments in technologies for MTBE removal from water.
广泛使用甲基叔丁基醚(MTBE)作为燃料含氧化合物导致这种化合物在全球范围内的环境污染,主要是由于燃料从储存或管道泄漏。MTBE 存在于饮用水中是一个高度关注的环境和社会问题。现有的去除水中 MTBE 的方法存在许多局限性,未来可能会通过新兴技术的应用得到克服。这项工作旨在提供最新的 MTBE 从水中去除技术的最新发展概述。
