Interest in finding adequate, cost-effective adsorbents with sufficient adsorption capacity, adsorptionrate and mechanical properties has increased extensively in recent times. Different types of activated carbon are generally used, and therefore these are themost often investigated sorbents for removal of dyesfrom wastewaters [25–27]. However, their use islimited because they are expensive sorbents with highcost regeneration, and taking into account the cost oftreatment of polluted water is increasingly important.
