@Bianca_FerS Yes, we characterized the material before and after the adsorption process by the techniques: SEM, BET, helium gas pycnometer, mercury porosimeter, FTIR, XRD, TG, and surface charge. The complete work was published in the Journal of Molecular Liquids 315 (2020) 113718
Our work "Adsorption of the antibiotic ofloxacin in calcined Verde-Lodo clay: Experimental design" aims to reduce the levels of antibiotic (emerging pollutant) from water by adding an application to an abundant and cheap material (clay).

I bet you know someone who takes losartan anti-hypertensive on a daily basis. But, did you know that it is a emerging contaminant in water?
We have explored #adsorption and #oxidation of losartan using a carbon-based material.
Check it out and let's debate!
