Abstract
The present work aims to experiment the action of carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in the removal of sodium chloride from aqueous systems, not using them as a membrane but dispersing them directly in solution, in order to evaluate possible applications in the desalination of brackish water. For this purpose, different aqueous systems have been prepared by varying the sodium chloride concentration and the amount of carbon nanotubes dispersed therein. The systems were stirred for scheduled times and then the amount of residual sodium chloride was measured by drying, after filtration, the systems and weighing the dry residue. In the final part of the experimentation, after having identified the best system, the tests were carried out directly on sea water and using different types of carbon nanotubes such as not oxidized (MWCNTs) and oxidized (MWCNTS-ox) ones.
