This review presents a holistic analysis of the synthesis and efficacy of nanosorbents
towards the waste water purification by the removal of selected heavy metal ions, with …

The living organisms are created by the carbohydrate biopolymers such as chitosan,
carboxymethyl cellulose, alginate and lignin. These carbohydrate biopolymers have been …

The purpose of this research was to improve the sorption ability of Pb and Cd by promoting
the ion exchange and precipitation capacity of biochar. The adsorption performance and …

In this study, the MgO-loaded fish scale biochar (MgO-FB) was synthesized by impregnation
of MgCl 2 using fish scales as precursor, and the modified biochar was applied for the …

This study investigated the potential use of sewage sludge-based activated carbon in the
removal of copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd) ions from aqueous solutions. The activated …

The presence of heavy metal and radionuclides in water bodies has been a long-lasting
environmental problem which results in many undesirable consequences. In this framework …

Activated carbon (AC) is widely used in water treatment, however, it has some technical
disadvantages, such as its high cost and difficulty to recover. To overcome these drawbacks …

High surface area mesoporous activated carbon-alginate (AC-alginate) beads were
successfully synthesized by entrapping activated carbon powder derived from Mangosteen …

Mxene has been widely used as a sorbent to remove heavy metal ions from sewage due to
its unique two-dimensional layered structure and abundant oxygen-containing groups …

The occurrence of acetaminophen in surface water has been reported worldwide, indicating
the need of alternative wastewater treatments. Activated hydrochar (AHC) is efficient for …
