Abstract
Development of science and technology may cause increase in consumption of the products. Consumption is the main reason of the environmental pollution, which includes water, air, and soil pollution. Therefore, sustainability is the most important factor for our natural sources. Due to industrial applications, water sources are in great danger. There are many micro and macro pollutants in the water. For the removal of the pollutants, various methods have been applied such as physical, chemical, or biological treatment. However, mostly advanced treatment methods are used for the removal of pollutants such as adsorption, membrane operations, and solvent extraction. This chapter includes adsorption process for the removal of boron, which has noticeable effects on the environment. Boron, produced from natural sources, is released to the water during industrial activities. Its concentration in the water is the important parameter since it can negatively affect plants, animals, and humans. Therefore, various adsorbents were used for the removal of boron effectively.
