Redoxsensitive nitrogen-grafted activated carbons would have a positive charge that attracts nitrate when oxidized, and neutral charge that releases nitrate when reduced. Electrochemical regeneration of NGACs would allow their re-use through multiple cycles in a manner that would be economically and technically practical.enfirst research weekNitratenitrogen-crafted activated carbonAbstract
