With globally increased human population and industrialization, the natural sources of water
are reduced and then contaminated. Therefore, development of advanced technologies for …

Water quality is deteriorating continuously as increasing levels of toxic inorganic and
organic contaminants mostly discharging into the aquatic environment. Removal of such …

Hydrogels based on cellulose comprising many organic biopolymers including cellulose,
chitin, and chitosan are the hydrophilic material, which can absorb and retain a huge …

During the last decade, hydrogels have been used as potential adsorbents for removal of
contaminants from aqueous solution. To improve the adsorption efficiency, there are …

Chitosan and its derivatives have been widely used as the adsorbents for different types of
water pollutants. This review paper lists various physically and chemically modified chitosan …

Excess phosphorous (P) in aquatic systems causes adverse environmental impacts
including eutrophication. This study fabricated Fe (III) loaded chitosan-biochar composite …

Nitrate, due to its high water solubility, is possibly the most widespread groundwater
contaminant in the world, imposing a serious threat to human health and contributing to …

A novel magnetic composite bioadsorbent composed of magnetic chitosan and graphene
oxide (MCGO) was prepared as the magnetic adsorbent. The morphology, chemical …

China is rich in straw resources, but its utilization value is low. The preparation of biochar
from straw will help to improve the utilization level of straw and realize the full utilization of …

Biochar was produced from Korean cabbage (KC), rice straw (RS) and wood chip (WC) and
the use as alternative adsorbents to activated carbon (AC) in wastewater treatment was …
