Fibrous arsenic (As) adsorbent was synthesized by loading zirconium (Zr) on fibrous phosphoric adsorbent that was directly synthesized by radiation-induced graft polymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate phosphoric acid on polyethylene-coated polypropylene nonwoven fabric. Zirconium reacted with phosphoric acid grafted in the polyethylene layer. Zirconium density of the resulting adsorbent was 4.1 mmol/g. The breakthrough curve of As(V) adsorption was independent of the flow rate up to $1300\;h^{-1}$ in space velocity. The total capacity of As(V) was 2.0 mmol/g-adsorbent at pH of 2. The adsorbed Zr(IV) could be evaluated by 0.4 M sodium hydroxide solution because negligible Zr(IV) could be found in the eluted solution.

In order to investigate a practical application of the fibrous adsorbent to heavy metal ions, acrylic fibers were treated with the hydroxylamine solution that was producted by hydroxylamine hydrochloride and potasium hydroxide in a condition of strong alkaline and $70^{\circ}C$. The adsorption mechanism of copper(2) ion on the fibrous adsorbent, that is hydroxylaminated acrylic fibers, was studied. The adsorption of copper(2) ion was explained in terms of the activated adsorption that are formed the complex with the ligand, such as C=N, N-H, NHOH, on the surface of the adsorbent. The activation energy was evaluated to be 3.8 Kcal/mol. and the times of adsorption equilibrium was approximately 10 minutes. The uptake of copper(2) ion was found to be effected with the increase of temperatures and the pH dependence.

The grafting of 2,3-epoxypropylmethacrylate (GMA) onto polypropylene fabric was carried out by the $\gamma$-ray preirradiation grafting technique. Subsequently, the GMA-grafted polypropylene fabric was reacted with iminodiacetic acid (IDA) in different mixed solvents to prepare the fibrous metal adsorbent. The grafting extent was found to be dependent on the reaction time, temperature, preirradiation dose and dose rate. The effects of various mixed solvents on the IDA amination onto GMA-grafted polypropylene fabric were investigated. Compared with other mixed solvents, the extent of amination was highest in the dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)/water, but the reaction did not occur in the water. The adsorption characteristics of various metal ions by the prepared adsorbent were examined when it was immersed in the 100 ppm metal ion solution. The amount of adsorption followed the order:$Pb^{2+}>Co^{2+}>Fe^{2+}$.

A bed configuration wherein sheets of modified fibrous polyethylene are potted within a Millipore Filter Cartridge matrix has been developed. Polyethylene fibers form sturdy beds but the native hydrophobicity and inertness of polyethylene have precluded their use in protein chromatography The polyethylene fibers used in this system were modified by plasma oxidation and further derivatization. The resulting fibers are hydrophilic, bind protein reversibly and serve as an anion-exchange stationary phase. Separation of Bovine Serum Albumin on this bed, as well as results of basic studies on capacity and reversibility of binding within a fibrous bed and experimental data handling system are shown.

A fibrous material (p-phenylene-2,5-benzobisoxazole, PBO) was used as an adsorbent for solid phase extraction in order to simplify the extraction procedure. The extraction performance for di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) was examined with two types of PBO fibers (HM (High modulus) and AS (Regular type) types) by batch type sorption/desorption experiments. When 100 mg of the HM fibers were applied to 20 mL of the aqueous DEHP solution (less than $50{\mu}g/L$), more than 95% of DEHP was adsorbed on the fibers, however, the AS type fibers adsorbed alkyl phthalate up to 80%. In the case of $50{\mu}g/L$ of the initial concentration of DEHP, the adsorbed DEHP was extracted effectively with methanol and the maximum overall recovery ratio was 92.3%. The results indicated that the PBO fibers could be used as an adsorbent for alkyl phthalate analysis, and that the extraction procedure was not affected by suspended solids in a water sample.

p-phenylene-2,5-benzobisoxazole (PBO; Zylon$(R)$) fibers as an adsorbent were employed for solid phase extraction of aqueous alkylphenols. The removal ratios for 10 kinds of alkylphenols at initial concentration of $100{\mu}gL^{-1}$ were in the range of 16.8-96.3% and the removals increased with the increase of the phase ratio (fiber weight/solution volume). The plots of the logarithm of partition coefficient (log K) were correlated with the logarithm of the n-octanol/water partition coefficient (log P). The adsorbed alkylphenols were completely desorbed with the mixture of acetonitrile and dichloromethane.

Adsorption is a plausible technology using solid adsorbents for dry capture of carbon dioxide ($CO_2$). In general, narrow size distribution of tiny pores and surface chemical functionalities of solid adsorbents enhance the adsorption capacity of gaseous $CO_2$ molecules. In order to utilize the advantages of fibrous adsorbents, this work prepared activated carbon nanofibers (ACNFs) via the electrospinning process using a polymer precursor of polyacylonitrile (PAN). The spun fibers were 390 nm to 580 nm in thickness with an average surface area of $27.3m^2/g$. The surface structure was improved by a programmed thermal activation at $800^{\circ}C$ in $CO_2$ atmosphere. It was also found that the nitrogen-groups including pyrrole and pyridine were created during the activation facilitaing the selective adsorption as forming enhanced active sites. The finally obtained adsorption capacities were 2.74 mmol/g for pure $CO_2$ flow and 0.74mmol/g for 3000 ppm.

The ACF/PP-g-AAc copolymers were synthesized by the irradiational grafting of acrylic acid onto ACF/PP fabric. The synthesis of copolymer was evidenced by the bands at 1720, 3600~3100 $cm^{-1}$ / on FT-IR spectrum. After the adsorption of metal ions on ACF/PP-g-AAc copolymers, the morphology with the small deposits on the fiber surface were observed by SEM. The optimal time for the metal ion adsorption equilibrium on ACF/PP-g-AAc copolymers was 24 hrs and their adsorption capacities increased in the order of Mn$^{2+}$>Cu$^{2+}$>Co$^{2+}$>Ni$^{2+}$. The adsorption capacities of ACF/PP-g-AAc copolymers were invariable after more than 10 times of regeneration.eration.
