• cycles of adsorption/desorption. Compared to literature results, this material can be considered a high-performing remediation adsorbent for the extraction of Zn(II) from natural real water solution.

• from polluted media have been thus proposed. These include several well-known analytical chemistry methods [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] as well as adsorption materials able to extract metal ions from aqueous solutions [17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. However, this latter solution presents
