“…The adsorption process is well-known for the recovery of various inorganic contaminants from water, characterized by ease of operation, cost-effectiveness, environmental safety, and the ability to reduce contaminants to low levels. − Therefore, the development of low-cost functional adsorbents for the efficient removal of Se(IV) and Se(VI) from water is important for practical applications. Various adsorbents for the removal of selenium from water have been reported in recent years, including metal oxides or hydroxides, , graphene-based adsorbents, , natural clays, and nanozero-valent iron (n-ZVI), , which have been demonstrated and widely investigated for the highly efficient removal of Se(IV) from water bodies. However, when the adsorbent is dispersed into water in the form of fine particles, it is difficult to separate them after use, and the adsorbent may cause secondary contamination.…”
