Abstract
A countercurrent system for treatment of contaminated fluid is provided. The system, in an embodiment, includes a source from which contaminated fluid may be introduced into the system and a reservoir of an adsorbent nanomaterial designed to remove contaminants from contaminated fluid. The system also includes a reactor in fluid communication with the reservoir, and within which a fluidized bed of the adsorbent nanomaterial can be accommodated in the presence of a countercurrent flow of contaminated fluid for the treatment of contaminated fluid. The system further includes a mechanism to maintain fluidity of the bed so that contaminated fluid introduced into the reactor can countercurrently flow through the bed. A pathway can also be provided along which treated fluid may be directed away from the container, as well as a collector for removing spent adsorbent material from the system. A method for treating contaminated fluid is also provided.
