received high concern recent years. Thus, efficient removal of these organic pollutants and minimize their usage in environment are highly recommended. Herein, we report hydrothermal chemical modifications of commercial kaolin (CK) in presence of sodium hydroxide (alkaline-modified kaolin; AMK) and disodium hydrogen phosphate (phosphate-modified kaolin; PMK) reagents. Interestingly, these chemical modifications altered the physico-chemical characteristics of CK in term of ... Read more
