Microplastics (MPs) are emerging pollutants that act as a carrier of toxic pollutants, release
toxic substances, and aggregate in biota. The adsorption behavior of MPs has recently …

In recent years, numerous investigations have explored the use of biochar for the removal of
organic and inorganic pollutants in single component systems. Biochar is a carbonaceous …

In this paper, the adsorption of Ciprofloxacin (CIP) from water in studies over the last decade
was reviewed. The purpose of this review is to analyse the vast body of literature on the …

Scientific evidences abound of the occurrence of plastic pollution, from mega-to nano-sized
plastics, in virtually all matrixes of the environment. Apart from the direct effects of plastics …

In this study, NaOH treated pine (NTP) and magnetite-pine composite (NTP-NC) were
prepared and applied for Cr (VI) adsorption at varying temperatures and the impact of the …

Microplastic polystyrene foam has been found widely in the environment and is readily
transported by wind or water. Beached and virgin foams of size 0.45–1 mm were prepared …

Micropollutants, also called emerging contaminants, consist of an extensive group of
synthetic and natural substances, including pharmaceuticals, personal care products …

Both heavy metals and microplastic pollutants are ubiquitous in the aquatic environment.
The uptake of lead (II) ions from aqueous solutions onto aged nylon microplastics was …

In this study, an effective and green adsorbent was prepared by the self-activation of kenaf
fiber and then the kenaf-based activated carbon (KAC) was applied for the removal of lead …

The past decade has seen a boom in environmental adsorption studies on the adsorptive
removal of pollutants from the aqueous phase. A large majority of works treat kinetic …
