Background Increased industrialization and urbanized civilization lead to the evolution of
several persisting hazardous pollutants. In order to degrade these tenacious pollutants in …

Addressing the critical issue of global water scarcity requires sustainable solutions. This
overview focuses on the synthesis, modification, and regeneration of chitosan-based porous …

The rise in pharmaceutical pollutants due to their unregulated discharge in pharmaceutical
wastewater has landed them as emerging contaminants that would gradually affect the …

Abstract A novel adsorbent, CMC-T-CH, was fabricated by crosslinking of carboxymethyl
cellulose (CMC) and chitosan (CH) with triethylenetetramine. The adsorbent's efficacy in …

Graphene oxide nanosheets (GONs) treatment of anionic dyeing wastewater has been
characterized by low removal efficiency due to its electronegativity. However, further …

Magnetic acid activated carbons (MAAC) were prepared from the shells of Sterculia villosa
Roxb by activating the biomass and magnetizing it using the co-precipitation technique …

The current study was done by preparing activated carbon from the common duckweed,
Lemna minor, after magnetization using Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles. The resultant product (Fe 3 …

Contamination with pharmaceutical compounds, especially antibiotics, has become the
focus of pollution control studies because of their high toxicity and difficulty in removing from …

In this study, Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) embedded nanocellulose (NCED)
has been used to study the adsorptive removal of methylene blue (MB) from simulated …

Carbon-based adsorbents are a preferred class of adsorbents for eliminating an array of
pollutants owing to their rigid porous morphology. However, the limitation of nitrogen …
