Contamination with traces of pharmaceutical compounds, such as ciprofloxacin, has prompted interest in their removal via low-cost, efficient biomass-based adsorption. In this study, classical models, a mechanistic model, and a neural network model we...
Lignites are widely available and cost-effective in many countries. Sustainable methods for their utilization drive innovation, potentially advancing environmental sustainability and resource efficiency. In the present study, FeO (∼25.1 nm) supported...
Hydrogel-based sorbents show promise in the removal of toxic metals from water. However, optimizing their performance through conventional trial-and-error methods is both costly and challenging due to the inherent high-dimensional parameter space ass...

Diclofenac (DCF) is frequently detected in aquatic environments, emphasizing the critical need for its efficient removal globally. Here, we present the synthesis of Fe(III)-doped β-CD-grafted chitosan (Fe/β-CD@CS) cryogel beads designed for adsorbing...
The presence of toxic chemicals in water, including heavy metals like mercury and lead, organic pollutants such as pesticides, and industrial chemicals from runoff and discharges, poses critical public health and environmental risks leading to severe...
Selective lithium (Li) recovery from unconventional water sources (UWS) (e.g., shale gas waters, geothermal brines, and rejected seawater desalination brines) using inorganic lithium-ion sieve (LIS) materials can address Li supply shortages and distr...
Phosphorus (P) pollution in aquatic environments poses significant environmental challenges, necessitating the development of effective remediation strategies, and biochar has emerged as a promising adsorbent for P removal at the cost of extensive re...
