Review on adsorptive removal of metal ions and dyes from wastewater using tamarind-based bio-composites

Simultaneous adsorption of ciprofloxacin drug and methyl violet dye on boron nitride nanosheets: experimental and theoretical insights

“…Physical processes are based totally on mass transfer mechanisms, including adsorption, membrane filtration, coagulation, ion change, and flocculation. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] Chemical techniques include oxidation, chlorination, photocatalysis, etc. [17][18][19] Because of its simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and ease of operation, adsorption has been receiving more attention than other methods.…”

A green catalyst and sensor: band engineering of Bi2Fe4O9-based S-scheme p–n/n homo-heterojunction for detection and degradation of cytotoxic drug

“…In the past few years, the adsorption properties of tamarind-shell-derived carbon have been extensively explored towards dyes and metal ion adsorption, whereas, to the best of our knowledge, tamarind shell has never been utilized towards the removal of pharmaceutical waste. 13 Abisha and his co-workers employed activated carbon derived from waste tamarind shell for the adsorption of the dye methyl orange from wastewater. 14 Sivakumar et al 15 reported the use of carbon derived from tamarind shell and various other agricultural wastes for the comparative adsorptive removal of the dye Azure A.…”
