A review on agro-industrial waste (AIW) derived adsorbents for water and wastewater treatment

Abstract

There is a large amount of studies surrounding the usage of agro-industrial waste (AIW) for the adsorptions of organic pollutants (dyes) and inorganic pollutants (heavy metals) in water/wastewater. This method is normally treated as an alternative approach to the conventional water/wastewater treatment. However, there are some increasing interests for investigators to identify novel adsorption materials for pollutants removal. It is particularly noteworthy that most AIW wastes are not currently used at the original state, but modified in a variety of ways to reinforce the porosity and adsorption surface area of the material. Nanostructuring, activation, carbonization, and grafting are some common modification technologies of agricultural waste adsorbents. Besides, the characteristic, preparation and application of adsorbents from various industrial wastes, including natural materials and biosorbents, were summarized. Additionally, the challenges and perspectives for future researches of waste-derived adsorbents were studied. This review provides an important insight on using AIWs as precursor materials for preparing adsorbents in water/wastewater treatment.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
