This study explores an innovative approach for the removal of Bisphenol-A (BPA) from aqueous solutions using a polymeric resin impregnated with a phosphorous-based extractant. Bisphenol-A, a widely used industrial chemical, is known for its endocrine-disrupting properties and environmental persistence. The impregnated polymeric resin offers a promising solution for efficient BPA removal due to the selective binding affinity of the phosphorous-based extractant. The experimental investigations include batch sorption studies, isotherm analysis, and kinetic evaluations to elucidate the efficiency and mechanisms of BPA removal. The findings showcase the potential of the developed polymeric resin as a sustainable and effective tool for purifying water contaminated with Bisphenol-A.
