Low-cost eco-friendly adsorbents are important as sustainable alternatives for water treatment. Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), polydopamine (PDA) and sugarcane bagasse microparticles (BG) were combined to create new biobased adsorbents that can be molded into desirable shapes and sizes, facilitating...
