A review of the developments in adsorbents for the efficient adsorption of ibuprofen from wastewater

Adsorbents used to remove ibuprofen were mostly mesoporous, and their adsorption capacity ranged from 0.220 to 497.3 mg g −1 , and efficiency from 50–100%. The adsorption process was chemisorption, which formed a monolayer on the adsorbent surface.
