Several environmental companies consider phenols compounds to be very dangerous pollutants because they are highly toxic and non-biodegradable, notably their high toxicity in water. For this reason, several processes have been studied by researchers to understand the mechanisms of elimination of phenolic compounds. Adsorption remains the best technique due to its characteristics, in fact, it is non-destructive and simple to use as well as have more other advantages, such as practicality and efficiency and low cost, Therefore, these methods need to be widely developed on an industrial scale to remove phenol derivatives and achieve wastewater quality in accordance with standards. On the other hand, the development of these adsorption methods is highly dependent on new research on materials from abundant natural resources, namely apatites or biomaterials.
