“…6 Many strategies have been used to remove HMIs from water, including nanoltration, 7 solvent extraction and ion exchange, 8,9 the use of resins, 10 photocatalytic degradation, 11,12 chemical precipitation, ion exchange, cooling, chemical deposition, biological treatment, reverse osmosis, and adsorption. 4,[13][14][15][16] Adsorption is one of the most effective treatment strategies as it does not require high temperatures and can simultaneously adsorb many chemicals. 12,17,18 Activated carbon (AC), clay minerals, chitosan, and bi-layer hydroxides are among the porous natural resource materials that have been reported.…”
