“…Granular activated carbon (GAC) and powdered activated carbon (PAC) are both porous carbon materials with well-defined pore structures and a substantial surface area (Cantoni et al, 2021;Emenike, Adeleke, et al, 2022), making them suitable for efficiently removing longer-chain PFAS compounds (Kempisty et al, 2022).…”

“…Utilizing activated carbon (AC) as the adsorbent is a common method for adsorbing PFAS from solutions. Granular activated carbon (GAC) and powdered activated carbon (PAC) are both porous carbon materials with well‐defined pore structures and a substantial surface area (Cantoni et al, 2021; Emenike, Adeleke, et al, 2022), making them suitable for efficiently removing longer‐chain PFAS compounds (Kempisty et al, 2022). Figure 1 shows the trend in articles published over the last ten years on the application of AC for addressing PFAS.…”

In response to the growing concern over the contamination of water sources by per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), the use of activated carbon (AC) for PFAS removal has garnered significant attention. However, the efficient removal of PFAS with conventional AC poses challenges due to the limited surface area and delayed absorption kinetics. This focused review provides a concise overview of the latest advancements in the modification of AC, a promising strategy for enhancing PFAS adsorption. Chemical and physical modifications, including the deposition of metal/metal oxide nanoparticles, polymer‐based coatings, surfactants, and advanced oxidation processes, were explored, offering insights into their mechanisms and effectiveness. The thorough analysis of these modified AC materials provides a valuable resource for developing efficient and sustainable strategies to address the pressing issue of PFAS contamination in water sources.

“…The successful adsorption of oil onto bioadsorbents is accompanied by the inevitable saturation of the material's adsorption sites. Considering this limitation, the paradigm shifts towards the essential need for regeneration, a process that rein-states the bioadsorbent's adsorption capacity, thereby ensuring sustained and repeated use [13]. The significance of regeneration lies in its potential to prolong the lifespan of bioadsorbents and its alignment with fundamental tenets of sustainability, economics, and environmental responsibility [14].…”

As climate change and environmental damage in the world are rising, the need for efficient waste management and purification is ever‐increasing. At present, the existence of oil in water constitutes a large proportion of this pollution. This oil comes from various sources, including effluents released by industries and oil spills. As such, the removal of oil from marine waters is crucial to combat pollution and preserve the ecology. Bioadsorption has emerged as an efficient method, but the sustainability and eco‐friendliness of this method are yet to be seen. This review summarizes the removal of different types of oil from the marine environment using bioadsorption, i.e., adsorption by biological materials. It briefly describes the adsorption mechanism by means of various bioadsorbents with oil. The preparation and performance of different types of bioadsorbents used in industries are discussed, along with some examples of bioadsorbents that can be applied for the removal of various oils from water. Also, an overview of the regeneration of the adsorbent by various methods is given.

“…However, chemical methods and biological methods can also cause secondary pollution and have high requirements for water intake, professional maintenance, and high infrastructure costs. 33 Conventional physical methods suffer from low separation efficiency and the collected spilled oil is still an oil–water mixture, resulting in complex post-processing. Such shortcomings of ordinary oil suction methods need to be overcome using alternative methods.…”
