description | Effective and low-cost removal of dye and heavy metals from wastewater still is a great challenge for researchers. Adsorption using activated carbon is widely used in removing these toxic pollutants. Physical, chemical, and biological modifications have been studied for improving activated carbon adsorption performance. Literature suggests that chemical modified activated carbon showed maximum adsorption capacity towards dye and heavy from aqueous solution. Chemical modifications, including acid, base, and impregnation, are studied extensively due to reagent availability, easy modification, and tuning facilities of surface functional groups. However, systematic documentation of chemical modifications on activated carbon is required for dye and heavy metals removal efficiency improvement from wastewater. This review focused on the up to date experimental chemically modified activated carbon that showed improved adsorption capacity towards dye and heavy metals from aqueous solution. The available experimental data recommends that an appropriate treatment strategy of a chemical modification process enhanced dye and heavy metals adsorption capacity of the modified activated carbon. Optimum modification process developed textural or surface functional groups properties of modified activated carbon that improved adsorption or binding capacity toward adsorbate or a particular species. In addition, the adsorption capacity of modified and corresponding activated carbon is compared. |
