of pure water. It hides other
types of pollution.
Prevents the penetration of
sunlight into deep layers of
water – Photosynthesis.
The biological risks have not
been totally discarded
(carcinogenic and toxic effects).
Use of biological techniques to
remove pollutants from air, soil and
water.

RESU
Decreases adsorption due to
competition for the adsorption

Green Tealeaves have proven to
be promising adsorbents for model
dyes BY57 and BB99.
