Abstract
Water pollution is one of the highly undesired drawbacks of the industrial development, and the discharge of wastewater in nature has attracted attention not only due to the short-term toxic effects, but especially to the negative effects on medium and long term. Adsorption is considered one of the most efficient methods to retain water pollutants due to its accessibility and flexibility. Lignocellulosic adsorbent materials based on agricultural waste represent a highly advantageous choice in terms of availability, low cost, biodiversity, as well as porous structure and the presence of reactive functional groups (such as carboxylic, hydroxylic, phenolic, and other oxygen-bearing moieties) able to bind organic (dyes, pesticides) and inorganic (heavy metal oxides and salts) pollutants. Some of the most recent data reported in the literature will be reviewed in the present chapter, highlighting a few factors that can influence the adsorption onto lignocellulosic adsorbents, and future directions of development will be presented as well.
