“…However, tannin is extremely soluble in water, which limits its practical application as a water treatment agent. To overcome this disadvantage, great efforts have been made by immobilizing or chemically modifying tannin onto some water‐insoluble matrices or carriers such as activated carbon, silica beads, hydrotalcite, zirconium oxide, resin, rayon fiber, collagen fiber, agarose, or cellulose derivative . However, these immobilizations are mostly through heterogeneous reaction, resulting in a limited amount of tannin immobilized and easy leakage in water, leading to poor adsorption and additional pollution .…”
