sorbentbased
Sorbent-based refers to systems or materials that remove, capture, or concentrate substances by sorption, a process that includes both adsorption (surface binding) and absorption (bulk uptake). In sorbent-based technologies, the target contaminant is held by the sorbent material, either on its surface or within its pores, enabling separation from the surrounding medium. Some definitions also include chemisorption, where chemical bonds form between the sorbate and sorbent.
Common sorbents include activated carbon, zeolites, silica gels, aluminas, clays, resins, and various porous inorganic or
Applications span environmental, industrial, and consumer sectors. In environmental remediation, sorbent-based systems remove organic pollutants, heavy
Key considerations include adsorption capacity, selectivity, regeneration or disposal options, and cost. Regeneration methods (thermal desorption,
