“…Nowadays, many pollutants, generated from anthropogenic activities, are found in groundwater and surface water, stimulating the search for efficient cleaning procedures. Several techniques have been tested for treating organic and inorganic wastewaters including sorption [1][2][3][4][5][6][7], membrane filtration [8,9], reverse osmosis [10] and, in recent years, advanced oxidation processes, such as photodegradation [11][12][13][14][15][16][17] and electro-oxidation [15,18,19]. Sorption process, a generic term covering the processes of adsorption, absorption and ionic exchange, is one of the most effective methods for wastewater treatment, because of its relatively high efficiency, low-cost, and simplicity [20].…”
