Patent number: 4013585Abstract: New adsorbents comprising granules of a mixture of nitrohumic acid and one r more proteins. These adsorbents are utilizable effectively for adsorbing heavy metals and oils contained in water. They are produced advantageously by either a process wherein a mixture of nitrohumic acid and a protein is kneaded with an aqueous solution of alkali and the kneaded mixture is first subjected to an acid treatment and then shaped into granules, or a process wherein nitrohumic acid and a protein are dissolved in an aqueous solution of alkali, the solution is acidified to form a precipitate and then the precipitate is separated and shaped into granules. The granular products thus obtained can be further improved in mechanical strength by means of a heat treatment.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 1974Date of Patent: March 22, 1977Assignee: Director-General of the Agency of Industrial Science and TechnologyInventors: Kazuki Terajima, Shigeru Tomita, Yoshindo Matsuda, Keiji Abe
