Hydroxychloroquine Adsorption in Aqueous Medium Using Clinoptilolite Zeolite.

Unlabelled: The presence of drugs on a large scale in aquatic matrices raises concern and requires the study of efficient technologies to remove these compounds. This study investigated the adsorption capacity of the natural zeolite clinoptilolite (CP) in removing the drug hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). Zeolite was characterized by BET, XRD, FT-IR, SEM, and pH techniques.
