Abstract
A series of MgAl-LDH as highly efficient adsorbents for removing low concentrations of NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup> were synthesized. The mechanism of NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup> removal has been comprehensively discussed in terms of its characterization, adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics.
