What is Palm Wastes Valorization for Wastewaters Treatment about?

Various palm trees are cultivated worldwide and contribute to the economic development of different countries mainly located in Asia, America, and Africa. The main species include oil palm, date palm and coconut palm. These palm trees and their processing fruits generate huge amounts of biowastes that could be turned into values in different domains such as energy recovery, agricultural soil amendment and environment preservation. In this chapter, the latest developments on palm derived wastes conversion into efficient adsorbents for wastewaters treatment are reviewed. The impact of the nature of the palm waste, as well as the physico-chemical-thermal modification procedure on the derived carbonaceous materials (biochars, hydrochars and activated carbons) are analyzed. The adsorbents performance under various experimental conditions, for the pollutants and nutrients capture is also summarized.\r\nThis chapter shows that the properties of the palm-derived adsorbents depend not only on the nature of the feedstock, but especially on the employed modification method. The best removal efficiencies for both organic and mineral pollutants from wastewaters were obtained for hybrid modifica
