Trari)Received 1 December 2019; Accepted 25 May 2020abstractMesopores are materials with pore diameters between 2 and 50 nm, are used in several fields such as catalysis, chromatography, adsorption, etc. This study focuses on the potential use of mesoporous Si(Mes) and perovskite (P) as adsorbents, their ability to remove hydroxybenzene from aqueous solutions and the possibilities of elimination of a certain class of phenolic compounds, whose chem-ical structures of which contain functions capable of interacting on the surface of the supports. The adsorbent was characterized by Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, Fourier-transform infrared spectros-copy and X-ray diffraction methods. Batch adsorption experiments were undertaken to assess the effect of physical parameters on the hydroxybenzene removal efficiency. It has been observed that under optimized conditions (pH 4; adsorbent dose 1 g L–1; agitation speed 200 rpm; contact time 90 min); up qmax of 4.210 g of hydroxybenzene/g adsorbent at 25°C were removed from the solution. The adsorption by the adsorbent follows a pseudo-second-order kinetic model with a determina-tion coefficient (R2) of 0.999; which relies on the assumption that the physisorption may be the rate-limiting step. The adsorption at different temperatures has been used for the determination of thermodynamic parameters, the negative free energy (ΔG°) and positive enthalpy (ΔH°) indicate that the overall adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic, while the negative value (ΔS°) states clearly that the randomness increases at the solid-solution interface during the phenol adsorption onto Si(Mes)-(P), indicating that some structural exchange may occur among the active sites of the adsorbent and the ions
