Abstract Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) contaminations are disturbing environmental issues,
which cause serious harm to aqueous systems and human health. Therefore, removing …

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 …

Color is a visible pollutant and the presence of even minute amounts of coloring substance
makes it undesirable due to its appearance. The removal of color from dye-bearing effluents …

Recently many researchers have proved the capability of agricultural solid wastes as
adsorbents to remove many types of pollutants including dyes. This review represents the …

The advanced treatment of industrial wastewater often calls upon the use of highly-efficient
treatment methods to remove hazardous pollutants prior to the effluent discharge …

Industries generating wastewater with elevated concentrations of pollutants (eg metals,
dyes, phenolic compounds, anions, etc.) need specialized atreatment systems. Adsorption is …

Antibiotics, an important type of pharmaceutical pollutant, have attracted many researchers
to the study of their removal from aqueous solutions. Activated carbon (AC) has been widely …

A review of a certain class of theoretical models describing the kinetics of pollutants sorption
onto various sorbents is presented. These assuming the rate of surface reaction as the rate …

Pollution with heavy metals is one of the most severe environmental problems in the world.
In this study, the batch adsorption of toxic Cu+ 2, Cr+ 3, Cd+ 2 and Pb+ 2 ions using marine …
