The coexistence of pharmaceuticals and heavy metals is regarded as a serious threat to
aquatic environments. Adsorbents have been widely applied to the simultaneous removal of …

The global economy's growths due to industrialization, accompanied by urbanization high
rate, have led to severe anthropogenic pollution impacting both the environment and human …

In the recent past, a class of emerging contaminants particularly endocrine disrupting
compounds (EDCs) in the aquatic environment have gained a lot of attention. This is due to …

This study proposes a sustainable approach for hard-to-treat wastewater using sintered
activated carbon (SAC) both as an adsorption filter and as an electrode, allowing its …

This work investigated the adsorption of five model contaminants of emerging concern
(CECs) that are released daily in domestic effluents (caffeine, hydrochlorothiazide …

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) use granular activated carbons (GACs) as odor
retainers because of their high surface area and porosity. The volatile compounds retained …

Surface-functionalised silica networks are advanced adsorbents. They have been given
much attention for treating wastewater using the adsorption technique due to the silanol …

Activated carbon (AC) is a porous carbon-rich material that is widely used to remove
pollutants, such as synthetic dyes, from contaminated water. Although quite efficient, the use …

Three-dimensional multi-porous Iron Oxide/carbon (Fe 2 O 3/C) composites derived from
tamarind shell biomass were synthesized by a single-step co-pyrolysis technique and …

Biochar, as an adsorbent, is widely used for the removal of organic pollutants in water body.
Hence, after saturated adsorption, regeneration treatment is required to recover the …
