Popis: The presence of dyes in effluents and wastewaters due to industrial activities has caused serious and critical problems for the public health and the environment. Various technologies have been introduced to remove dyes from wastewater. Among these technologies, the adsorption processes as a promising solution for the removal of dye from wastewater has attracted the attention of researchers and the industrial community. The performance of the adsorption process largely depends on the properties of the adsorbent used. Therefore, the development of novel adsorbents that can exhibit high adsorption capacity of the dye is an urgent need. In the meantime, the advent of hybrid adsorbents has raised hopes for a solution to the problem of the dye-containing effluents. This chapter first deals with dyeing materials, their types, sources of release, and their environmental effects and then focuses on different aspects of hybrid adsorbents such as synthesis methods and their applications in the removal of different types of dyes.
