Abstract

This research showcases the basic parameters that are required to produce bio-adsorbent suitable for adsorption process and their important role on treatment of contaminated water environment. The overview of the physicochemical parameters of the raw materials used for the production of the adsorbents, the particle size and the mix ratio were identified as a contributing factor to the rate of contaminants mitigation in the system. The effect of water pollution was considered in term of health implication, environmental impact resulting from radioactive substance, sewage, agriculture, industrial waste, oil pollution, and domestic waste. Method of treatment by the application of boom, manual, skimmer, sorbent, natural, dispersant, burning and bioremediation demonstrates the significance of the novel contribution of these concepts enhanced the examination of the process as well as the outcomes of the research. The investigation demonstrates the usefulness of carrying out experimental concepts and the required laboratories apparatus to measure each of the sample in accordance to the factorial design of the process. The conceptual investigation of the system in terms of process design will be checked to ascertain the performance of the adsorbent as well as the effectiveness of the adsorbent. The performance of the adsorbent can be linked to the characteristics of the formulated samples as well as the physicochemical properties, particle size and the mix ratio.
