“…The values compare very favorably to adsorption capacities of several common adsorbents reported in the literature, such as zeolite (16.37 mg g −1 , MB), activated sewage char (120 mg g −1 , MB), titania (6 mg g −1 , MB), H 3 PO 4 -activated various micro-mesoporous carbons (138-190 mg g −1 , MB) [68,69]. The value (186 mg g −1 ) is also comparable to data reported for other layered titanate products, for example, hollow spheres (154 mg g −1 , MB) and microspherulites (236 mg g −1 , MB) [70][71][72]. The high adsorption capacity of TiO 2 NSs are assigned to the high surface area [73], and mesopore structures of the materials.…”
