Abstract

Phenolic compounds are categorised as hazardous pollutants that contaminant groundwater. The  principal objective of this article was to organising effective adsorbents for the removal of phenol and it’s  derivative. In this review article, a compelling amount of published paper were consulted in order to  provide information about various agricultural waste adsorbents. Agricultural waste adsorbents have  been modified by thermal and chemical process to enhance the surface area properties. This article has  suggested that increasing the adsorbent dosage increases the adsorption capacity. The pH, adsorption  capacity, reduction efficiency and temperature have been investigated for various adsorbents in this  article. This study proved that agricultural waste adsorbents are effective in removal of phenol from  waste water.
