Abstract

The authors wish to amend the sections of the manuscript detailed below. These corrections are due to inaccuracies in the adsorption activity, as well as in the surface area of the adsorbent. The corrections are as follows: (1) On page 1, the sentence including "4.13 nm and the surface area is 112.9 m2 g1" should instead read as "4.55 nm and the surface area is 120.7 m2 g1". (2) On page 1, in the sentence including "490 to 2210 mg g1" should instead read as "483 to 2190 mg g1". (3) On page 3 (le? column), the sentence including "16.00 m2 g1" should instead read as "120.7m2 g1", and "4.13 nm" should instead read as "4.55 nm". (4) On page 4 (le? column), the sentence including "808 mg g1" should instead read as "790 mg g1". (5) Page 5 (right column), the sentence including "868 to 1000 mg g1" should instead read as "849 to 1000 mg g1". (6) Page 5 (right column), the sentence including "422, 431, 481 and 490 mg g1" should instead read as "417, 425, 476 and 483 mg g1". (7) Page 5 (right column), the sentence including "1812, 2061, 2164 and 2210 mg g1" should instead read as "1800, 2043, 2110 and 2190 mg g1". (8) Page 5 (le? column), the sentence including "868 to 1000 mg g1" should instead read as "849 to 1000 mg g1". (Figure Presented).
