May 17, 2023 | mdpi.com | Zhongxiang Liu |Pengfei Liu |Yijun Zhang |Xiuzhi Bai

Abstract:In this work, a novel composite of bacterial cellulose (BC) and expanded vermiculite (EVMT) composite was used to adsorb dyes and antibiotics. The pure BC and BC/EVMT composite were characterized using SEM, FTIR, XRD, XPS and TGA. The BC/EVMT composite exhibited a microporous structure, providing abundant adsorption sites for target pollutants.
