A Review, Methods for removal and adsorption of volatile organic compounds from environmental matrixes

The volatile organic compounds (vocs) have toxic effects on human health and environmental matrices. so, determination and removal of vocs from the environmental samples such as water, wastewater and air are very important as they exert toxic effects on human. many chemical techniques such as; analytical methods for sorbents (extraction, adsorption), sole gel method, pervaporation, regenerative catalytic oxidation (rco), recuperative catalytic oxidation (co), adsorptive concentration-catalytic oxidation, photocatalytic oxidation (pco), ozonation-catalytic oxidation and non-thermal plasma-catalytic oxidation, have been used for removal and reduction of vocs from different matrices. this review study has been conducted to collect the adsorbents and applied chemistry methods which have been recently used in different works for the elimination of vocs from air and water samples.
