TL;DR: In this article, the removal of phenol and cadmium ion (Cd2+) using activated carbon obtained from peanut shells was analyzed and the best model to fit the experimental data was the pseudo-second-order model.

TL;DR: In this paper, a full characterization of ashes generated from the combustion of bagasse at two different sugarcane ethanol plants, one in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil and the other in Villa Clara, Cuba (SBA2), was provided with a view to examining their usage as adsorbing agents for the removal of heavy metals and various organic impurities.

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of activated charcoal made from Umbauba wood as an adsorbent for the removal of naphthenic acid in an aviation kerosene model mixture was proposed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determined the kinetics, thermodynamics, and adsorption mechanism of the oxytetracycline (OTC) on rice husk ash (RHA).

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors summarize the type of pollutant compounds, filtration processes, and membranes that have been most studied in this area with particular emphasis on how the modification of membranes, either the manufacturing process or the incorporation of nanomaterials, influences their performance.
