The aim of this study is to prepare a functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and use it for the removal of malathion pesticide from wastewater. The synthesized MWCNT exhibits excellent thermal and chemical stability and hence can be used as a very good adsorbent, compared to pure non-fu...
