Clay minerals are affordable, abundant, naturally occurring minerals found in many parts of
the world that have been used effectively for remediation of many contaminants. This review …

The exponential increment in world population, recent industrialization, civilization,
agricultural and household activities leads to greater levels of water pollution in terms of …

Natural and synthetic clays have been used as adsorbents for removal of heavy metals and
dyes from aqueous solution for many decades. In the last decade, exfoliating the natural …

In recent decades, increased industrial, agricultural, and domestic activities have resulted in
the release of various pollutants into the aquatic systems, which require a reliable and …

Green chemists paid much more attention towards the alternative ways to reutilize waste
materials instead of its disposal in a non-ecofriendly manner. In this study, drinking-water …

Due to the high hydrophobicity and surface area, clays are efficient adsorbents for the
removal of liquid impurities and purification of gases when they are modified. In this work …

The process of adsorption is considered to be one of the best water treatment technologies
around the world. Different heavy metals, due to their toxic and hazardous nature, are …
