The rapid growth of population and industrialization results in pollution of freshwater sources
which leads to the water stress conditions on the world in future. Adsorption is a low cost and …

A progressive economic growth and proliferating global population caused adequate
provision of clean water as a global issue. The systematic eradication of toxic pollutants from …

In this study, we report the potential capability of nanoporous poly (styrene-r-
methylmethacrylate)(PS-PMMA) copolymer composites in removing toxic benzene-toluene …

Ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) with high specific surface area and large pore volume
was synthesized and tested for use as an adsorbent for volatile organic compound (VOC) …

Traditionally, porous carbon can be realized through chemical activation as well as
templating with different materials for generation of hierarchical pores. However, the former …

Petroleum processing wastewater (PPW) is a complex mixture of free, soluble, and emulsive
hydrocarbons that often contain heavy metals and/or solid particles. As these hazardous …

In this study, the kinetics and isotherms of mono-and multi-component adsorption of phenol
(PN) and 4-nitrophenol (4NP) in aqueous solution were determined in a batch reactor …

The presence of benzene, toluene, and p-xylene (BTX) in an aqueous media imparts
harmful effects on the ecosystem. To abate these hydrophobic contaminants, adsorption with …

Benzene, toluene, and xylene (BTX) are potential contaminants of groundwater, and there is
a need to improve current remediation techniques, such as adsorption. Different materials …

The wastewater from chemical industries encapsulates a variety of different volatile organic
compounds. Among these hydrophobic pollutants, benzene, toluene and xylene (BTX) are …
