Silica-based mesoporous materials; emerging designer adsorbents for aqueous pollutants removal and water treatment
Abstract
Abstract This is a review of recent literature on pristine and specifically functionalized mesoporous silica-based materials or ‘designer silicates’ used as adsorbents for aqueous pollutants removal and water treatment. Ordered mesoporous silicates, their synthesis, surfactants removal, and preparation of the designer silicates were briefly introduced before discussing their applications in the removal of inorganic and organic pollutants. Designer silicates, such as the nitrogen/thiol-containing, the magnetics, and the composites, are highlighted with their various applications for the removal of toxic metal cations, anionic species, dyes, pesticides, industrial organics, pharmaceuticals and other emerging pollutants. These applications were briefly discussed indicating salient features and using illustrating figures where possible.

“Silicon based materials have been studied extensively for pollutants adsorption as well 51, 52 . Their interesting properties such as ability for a wide range of pore size and surface areas, durability, ease of functionalisation and relatively cheaper regeneration compared to activated carbon, have made them excellent candidates for water treatment with many examples on dye adsorption 53-56 .”

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.
