Starch-based polymer materials as advanced adsorbents for sustainable water treatment: current status, challenges, and future perspectives

Over the past three decades, chemical and biological water contamination has become a major concern, particularly in the industrialized world. Heavy metals, aromatic compounds, and dyes are among the harmful substances that contribute to water pollution, which jeopardies the human health. For this r...
