Treatment of industrial wastewater in the adsorption process by natural fibers
(Elsevier, 2023) ŞAFAK, Şerife; ÇİFÇİ, Deniz İzlen
Adsorption is one of the popular wastewater treatment methods for the removal of pollutants. Adsorbent materials are mostly produced from polymeric materials and industrial by-products that are quite expensive, and generally, polymeric materials are not eco-friendly. An ideal adsorbent material should be simple, environmentally friendly, cost-effective, and effective in removing various pollutants for wastewater treatment. Natural fibers such as cotton, sisal, hemp, flax, kenaf, jute, and synthetic fibers such as polypropylene, carbon, and polyester were used as adsorbent material for the removal of contaminants from wastewater. Especially, natural fibers with high porosity, low specific gravity, and superior adsorption ability promising materials to remove metals and dyes from industrial wastewater. This chapter focuses on natural fibers as adsorbents for wastewater treatment and their performances in the removal of contaminants such as dyes and heavy metals as reported in the literature. © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
