The paper presents a new approach for the selective adsorption of Xylene isomers from air samples using nanomaterial based on oxidized multiwalled carbon nanotubes. In the first study the functionalization of two oxidized MWCNTs was achieved with hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite. The characterization of functionalized CNTs CNT-NaOCl CNT-H2O2 was performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy FT-IR and X-Ray diffractometer XRD . Afterthat the applications of pristine CNTs and oxidized CNTs for removal of three Xylene isomers from air samples were discussed. The results demonstrate that the correlation of CNTs and three isomers was significantly different with an affinity order O-Xylene m-Xylene p-Xylene. The oxidized CNTs with carbonyl groups increased significantly its adsorption capacity for these isomers. A comparison in term of adsorption performance shows that the framework distinguishes among these adsorbents due to the dispersive properties and the electrostatic interaction between the Xylene isomers and oxidized CNTs surface. Keywords carbon nanotubes air pollution Xylene adsorption. 1. INTRODUCTION Xylene isomers i.e. p-xylene o-xylene and m-xylene are mainly produced from catalytic reforming process in petrochemical industries. These aromatic hydrocarbons have significant effects on the quality of the air pollution ground water and public health. Xylene isomers separation has .
