Abstract

This study performs a review of the adsorptive removal of volatile organic compounds such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX) from various industrial wastewaters. The literature has been reviewed in accordance with a variety of adsorbents that have been applied in BTEX removal based on previous studies. The wide range of adsorbents includes carbonaceous materials, silica materials, clay materials, zeolite and zeolite-like materials, polymeric materials and biomass. The summary of adsorption capacities, isotherm, kinetics and thermodynamics of these adsorbents are presented in extensive tables.
