Adsorption of pharmaceuticals on chitosan-based magnetic composite particles with core-brush topology

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive understanding of the biosorption capability of different biosorbents is necessary to know how they can remove inorganic and organic contaminants in wastewater, thus bridging the gap between laboratory results and industrial use.

TL;DR: In this article, the occurrence of pharmaceuticals in the environment, its major causes, and implications along with effective procedures for their removal from contaminated water have been studied, where adsorption stands out as a promising treatment method, since it offers advantages such as lower energy consumption and simpler operation conditions in comparison to other tertiary treatments.

TL;DR: The basic principles of the adsorption process will be elucidated, including affecting factors, evaluation index, adsorbent mechanisms, and common kinetic and isotherm models, and key parameters affecting the Adsorption performance will be discussed.

TL;DR: Chitosan-based adsorbents have attracted increasing attention in water and wastewater treatment in recent years due to its abundance and low price, as well as rich amino and hydroxyl groups.

TL;DR: A good introduction to the history of the POLYMER CHEMISTRY can be found in this paper, where the authors present a good overview of the history and history of their work.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the rate of adsorption of persistent organic compounds on granular carbon is quite low and the rate is partially a function of the pore size distribution of the adsorbent, of the molecular size and configuration of the solute, and of the relative electrokinetic properties of adsorbate and adsorbents.
