“…It is possible to extract some valuable compounds from organic waste such as pectine, fibers, antioxidants etc., but often vast quantities of lignocellulose fraction stay unused [1]. In order to minimize lignocellulosic waste a number of such materials have been investigated as adsorbents for the removal of heavy metals from the wastewaters: either in its native form [2,3], treated form [4,5,6], or in active carbon form [7,8,9]. Removal of heavy metals from aqueous solution by lignocellulosic materials is provided by the presence of various functional groups on their surface (hydroxyl, carbonyl, phosphate, amino and thiol groups plays a major role in heavy metals binding mechanism).…”

“…According to current information, the cost of commercial adsorbents in the world market varies between~800 and 5000 US$/ton (depending on the quality/type of adsorbent) (Selvaraju and Bakar 2017). The optimised activation method proposed here requires short processing times and low temperatures/heat energy, potentially three times less energy than that required for conventional thermochemical activation at higher temperature (500-1000°C) (Pap et al 2017). As such, this approach indicates that this material could be economically feasible, demonstrating the potential for this CCM as a scaled-up commercial product.…”

“…Adsorption is the most applied method for heavy metal removal. Among all the commonly used adsorbents (various zeolite, fly ash, clay, and zero-valent irons, activated carbon), activated carbon is considered as the best performed one (Da'na and Awad 2017; Karnib et al 2014;Pap et al 2017). However, the high cost of heavy metal removal by activated carbon has hindered its application, and thus, seeking on costeffective adsorbent is highly needed.…”
