This review paper discusses the increasing water pollution caused by wastewater discharge from various industries, highlighting the health and environmental problems associated with different pollutants. It also provides information on adsorption techniques for removing pollutants from aqueous solutions, including adsorbent materials, applications, capacities, and characteristics.
Water pollution is increasing day by day due to the wastewater discharge from various industries. Different pollutants like pesticides, insecticides, bromate ions, heavy metals such as copper, zinc, antimony, lead, nickel, cadmium, mercury, etc. create various health and environmental problems due to their toxicity. Overall, this review paper intends to provide literature concerning the removal of various pollutants from aqueous medium by adsorption with two objectives. First, it offers various health effects associated with different pollutants in wastewater followed by various adsorbent materials and applications, adsorption capacities, and certain characteristics of these adsorbents to remove pollutants from aqueous solution.
