Removal of acrylic acid (AA) from process water by using alumina

The presence of acrylic acid (AA) in process water is the major problem in many industries which are using acrylic acid.There is no proper method available to remove acrylic acid from process water and hence the industries incinerating the process water containing acrylic acid to remove it.But,this...
