Abstract

The chapter 'Valorization of Wood Waste as Biosorbent for the Removal of Organic and Inorganic Contaminants in Water' delves into the pressing issue of water contamination due to organic and inorganic pollutants. It highlights the potential of wood waste as a low-cost, biodegradable, and abundant biosorbent for water treatment. The chapter discusses the chemical composition of wood waste, its adsorption properties, and various methods of modification to enhance its effectiveness. It also explores the physicochemical characterization of wood waste as a biosorbent and its applications in removing both organic contaminants like dyes and inorganic pollutants such as heavy metals. The chapter concludes by emphasizing the need for further research to improve the recyclability and stability of wood waste biosorbents, making it a valuable resource for environmental scientists, water treatment specialists, and waste management engineers.
