What is it about?
A complete immobilization of the adsorbed contaminant at a surface of composite adsorbent coating has been a main scope of this research study. This approach has been investigated so that it can be easily handled and removed after the adsorption process, unlike the filtration or centrifugation needed for powder or nano-adsorbents.

Why is it important?
Results demonstrated that adsorbent coating is an advanced adsorbent with few advantages, i.e; easy phase separation and capability to remove both anionic and cationic dyes. This approach will not require any separation step (filtration, centrifugation), eradicate the hydrodynamic pressure drop and column blockade if adsorbent was in nano-size, no secondary pollution, lessen the cost and shorten the time and facilitate the treatment of bigger wastewater volume with superior mass transfer
Perspectives
I fervently hope that this research finding can be further investigated up to real wastewater treatment application and can be used throughout the world. Not just stop in the lab and thesis. Please support.
