In recent years, the removal of pollutants from wastewater has been an
important fact. There are several methods for the removal of pollutants such as
photocatalysis, coagulation-flocculation, oxidation, membrane separation, etc.
Adsorption is one of the methods that can be used for the removal of pollutants
effectively. It is a low-cost and easily applicable method among removal methods. This
chapter includes the adsorption properties of the composites synthesized via the volume
combustion method. The studies which were carried out in recent years were reviewed.
Synthesizing methods and adsorption properties were evaluated in detail and brief
information was given. It is aimed to introduce a new methodology for using nano-size
materials synthesized via the volume combustion method.
