Bouzikri S, Ouasfi N, Khamliche L. Statistical physics modeling study of an environmentally friendly and efficient adsorbent derived from the brown macroalgae Bifurcaria bifurcata for the removal of Bisphenol A. MARINE POLLUTION BULLETIN 2024; 199:116025. [PMID: 38232650 DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2024.116025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Revised: 12/29/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/19/2024]
Abstract
The brown macroalgae Bifurcaria bifurcata was valued and used to develop a carbonaceous material activated by H2SO4 (AC-BB@H2SO4), with the goal of assessing its adsorption ability against Bisphenol A (BPA). During the adsorption experiments, the effects of the adsorbent dose, solution pH, and contact time were examined, and the results were m = 0.4 g/L, pH = 8.3, and t = 120 min, with an elimination yield of 91.6 %. With comparatively high R2 values, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model perfectly fitted the experimental data. Langmuir's model was found to be the best appropriate for describing the adsorption equilibrium of BPA on AC-BB@H2SO4. The thermodynamic findings show that BPA adsorption on AC-BB@H2SO4 was spontaneous, favorable, and endothermic in nature. Even after six cycles of reuse, regeneration testing demonstrated that our adsorbent could eliminate BPA by >50 %. The BPA adsorption mechanism's statistical physics control parameters were determined and analyzed. BPA's adsorption energies were <40 kJ/mol, indicating that the interactions between BPA and AC-BB@H2SO4 were governed by physical forces (i.e., hydrogen bonding and van der Waals and electrostatic interactions). All of these intriguing findings indicate that our carbonaceous material might have direct ramifications in the field of wastewater treatment, notably for the clearance of BPA, which is difficult to biodegrade.

Abstract
In this paper, we provide a comprehensive review of the latest research trends in terms of the preparation, and characteristics of activated carbons regarding CO2 adsorption applications, with a special focus on future investigation paths. The reported current research trends are primarily closely related to the synthesis conditions (carbonization and physical or chemical activation process), to develop the microporosity and surface area, which are the most important factors affecting the effectiveness of adsorption. Furthermore, we emphasized the importance of regeneration techniques as a factor determining the actual technological and economic suitability of a given material for CO2 capture application. Consequently, this work provides a summary and potential directions for the development of activated carbons (AC). We attempt to create a thorough theoretical foundation for activated carbons while also focusing on identifying and specific statements of the most relevant ongoing research scope that might be advantageous to progress and pursue in the coming years.

Abstract
Water contamination by pesticides is increasing dramatically due to population growth and the extensive use of pesticides in agriculture, leading to grave environmental and health concerns. Thus, efficient processes and the design and development of effective treatment technologies are required due to the enormous demand for fresh water. The adsorption approach has been widely used to remove organic contaminants such as pesticides because of its performance, less expense, high selectivity, and simplicity of operation compared to other treatment technologies. Among alternative adsorbents, biomaterials abundantly available for pesticide sorption from water resources have attracted the attention of researchers worldwide. The main objective of this review article is to (i) present studies on a wide range of raw or chemically modified biomaterials potentially effective in removing pesticides from aqueous media; (ii) indicating the effectiveness of biosorbents as green and low-cost materials for removing pesticides from wastewater; and (iii) furthermore, report the application of response surface methodology (RSM) for modeling and optimizing adsorption.

The production of activated biochar using Calophyllum inophyllum waste biomass and use as an adsorbent for removal of diuron from the water in batch and fixed bed column. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:52498-52513.

Abstract
The Calophyllum inophyllum species annually produces a large volume of cylindrical fruits, which accumulate on the soil because they do not have nutritional value. This study sought to enable the use of this biomass by producing activated biochar with zinc chloride as an activating agent for further application as an adsorbent in batch and fixed bed columns. Different methodologies were used to characterize the precursor and the pyrolyzed material. Morphological changes were observed with the emergence of new spaces. The carbonaceous material had a surface area of 468 m2 g-1, Dp = 2.7 nm, and VT = 3.155 × 10-1 cm3 g-1. Scientific and isothermal studies of the adsorption of the diuron were conducted at the natural pH of the solution and adsorbent dosage of 0.75 g L-1. The kinetic curves showed a good fit to the Avrami fractional order model, with equilibrium reached after 150 min, regardless of the diuron concentration. The Liu heterogeneous surface model well represented the isothermal curves. By raising the temperature, adsorption was encouraged, and at 318 K, the Liu Qmax was reached at 250.1 mg g-1. Based on the Liu equilibrium constant, the nonlinear van't Hoff equation was employed, and the ΔG° were < 0 from 298 to 328 K; the process was exothermic nature (ΔH0 = -46.40 kJ mol-1). Finally, the carbonaceous adsorbent showed good removal performance (63.45%) compared to a mixture containing different herbicides used to control weeds. The stoichiometric column capacity (qeq) was 13.30 and 16.61 mg g-1 for concentrations of 100 and 200 mg L-1, respectively. The length of the mass transfer zone was 5.326 cm (100 mg L-1) and 4.946 cm (200 mg L-1). This makes employing the leftover fruits of the Calophyllum inophyllum species as biomass for creating highly porous adsorbents a very effective and promising option.

[PMID: 36676304 PMCID: PMC9862035 DOI: 10.3390/ma16020569] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 01/03/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
In this study, a biochar obtained from poplar wood gasification at a temperature of 850 °C was used to adsorb the xenoestrogens 4-tert-octylphenol (OP) and bisphenol A (BPA) and the herbicide metribuzin from water. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDX) and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy were employed to investigate the surface micromorphology and functional groups composition of biochar, respectively. The study of sorption kinetics showed that all compounds achieved the steady state in less than 2 h, according to a pseudo-second order model, which denoted the formation of strong bonds (chemisorption) between biochar and the compounds. Adsorption isotherms data were described by the Henry, Freundlich, Langmuir and Temkin equations. At temperatures of 10 and 30 °C, the equilibrium data of the compounds were generally better described by the Freundlich model, although, in some cases, high correlation coefficients (r ≥ 0.98) were obtained for more than one model. Freundlich constants, KF, for OP, BPA and metribuzin were, respectively, 218, 138 and 4 L g-1 at 10 °C and 295, 243 and 225 L g-1 at 30 °C, indicating a general increase of adsorption at higher temperature. Desorption of all compounds, especially OP and BPA, from biochar was slow and very scarce, denoting an irreversible and hysteretic process. Comparing the results of this study with those reported in the literature, we can conclude that the present biochar has a surprising ability to retain organic compounds almost permanently, thus behaving as an excellent low-cost biosorbent.

Abstract
The present work proposes an experimental strategy to prepare argan nutshell-derived porous carbons using potassium hydroxide (KOH). Several experimental parameters of the activation process were evaluated (temperature, impregnation ratio, and activation time), and an optimized carbon (ACK) was obtained. The surface properties of the ACK sample were determined, and the porous carbon was applied as an adsorbent of diclofenac (DCF) and paroxetine (PARX). A commercial carbon (CC) was used as a benchmark. The ACK porous carbon presented a higher surface area and micropore volume (1624 m2 g−1 and 0.40 cm3 g−1, respectively) than CC carbon (1030 m2 g−1 and 0.30 cm3 g−1, respectively), but the maximum adsorption capacities of DCF (214–217 mg g−1) and PARX (260–275 mg g−1) were comparable among the two carbons. Besides π-π interactions, H-bonds with the electronegative atoms of the adsorbate molecules and the electropositive H of the oxygen functional groups were appointed as the most probable mechanisms for adsorption onto ACK porous carbon. The electrostatic attraction was also considered, particularly for DCF with CC carbon. The pore size might have also been critical, since CC carbon presented more supermicropores (0.7–2 nm), which are usually more favorable toward the adsorption of pharmaceutical molecules. The reusability of the ACK carbon was tested up to four cycles of adsorption–desorption by using ultrasonic washing with water. The results indicated that no more than one cycle of use of ACK should be performed.

Abstract
An iron-based metal-organic framework, MIL-53(Fe), was synthesized via the simple sonochemical method, which is a facial and fast strategy, and their adsorption performance for organic contaminants removal from aqueous solutions was studied. The crystal structure and morphology analysis indicate that the sonochemical synthesis of MIL-53(Fe) particles was faster than the solvothermal preparation method, showing high crystallinity with a downsized hexagonal bipyramid shape. Furthermore, the prepared MIL-53(Fe) exhibited enhanced adsorption capability for the organic dyes compared to metal-organic framework prepared via the solvothermal method and showed excellent maximum adsorption capability for the methyl orange removal from aqueous solutions. Based on the superior adsorption properties and facile synthesis, MIL-53(Fe) prepared by ultrasound irradiation has a potential application for an efficient, economic, and ecofriendly wastewater purification process.

Abstract
In the recent past, a class of emerging contaminants particularly endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) in the aquatic environment have gained a lot of attention. This is due to their toxic behaviour, affecting endocrine activities in humans as well as among aquatic animals. Presently, there are no regulations and discharge limits for EDCs to preclude their negative impact. Furthermore, the conventional treatment processes fail to remove EDCs efficiently. This necessitates the need for more research aimed at development of advanced alternative treatment methods which are economical, efficient, and sustainable. This paper focusses on the occurrence, fate, toxicity, and various treatment processes for removal of EDCs. The treatment processes (physical, chemical, biological and hybrid) have been comprehensively studied highlighting their advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, the use of agri-waste based adsorption technologies has been reviewed. The aim of this review article is to understand the prospect of application of agri-waste based adsorbents for efficient removal of EDCs. Interestingly, research findings have indicated that the use of these low-cost and abundantly available agri-waste based adsorbents can efficiently remove the EDCs. Furthermore, the challenges and future perspectives on the use of agri-waste based adsorbents have been discussed.

Abstract
Pharmaceutical wastewater pollution has reached an alarming stage, as many studies have reported. Membrane separation has shown great performance in wastewater treatment, but there are some drawbacks and undesired byproducts of this process. Selective membranes could be used for pollutant investigation sensors or even for pollutant recovery. The polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane was first tested on separated and mixed antibiotic (ATB) water solutions containing sulfamethoxazole (SM), trimethoprim (TMP), and tetracycline (TET). Then, the bare and ultra-violet grafted (UV-grafted) PDMS membranes (MMA-DMAEMA 10, GMA-DMAEMA 5, and GMA-DMAEMA 10) were tested in tramadol (TRA) separation, where the diffusion coefficient was evaluated. Finally, the membranes were tested in pertraction with a mixture of SM, TMP, TET, and TRA. The membranes were characterized using the following methods: contact angle measurement, FTIR, SEM/EDX, and surface and pore analysis. The main findings were that TET was co-eluted during mixed ATB pertraction, and GMA-DMAEMA 5 was found to selectively permeate TRA over the present ATBs.

Abstract
This review is an attempt to assess the adsorption performance of different green adsorbents derived from agricultural waste materials (AWMs) that were used for the elimination of bisphenol A (BPA) from aqueous matrices. Different processes including grafting, polymerization, activation and chemical treatment have been applied to functionalize and modify agricultural waste materials for the purposes of increasing their adsorptive performances toward BPA. The highest reported adsorption capacity of adsorbent from agricultural waste for the uptake of BPA is the highly microporous carbon adsorbent derived from Argan nut shell (1408 mg g-1). Hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic and π-π interactions were reported in most studies as the main mechanisms governing the adsorption of BPA onto agricultural waste adsorbents. Equilibrium isotherm and kinetic studies for the uptake of BPA onto agricultural waste adsorbents were best described by Langmuir/Freundlich model and pseudo-second order model, respectively. Despite the effective elimination of BPA by various agricultural waste adsorbents, an appropriate selection of elution solvent is important for effective desorption of BPA from spent adsorbent. To date, ethanol, diethyl ether-methanol, methanol-acetic acid, mineral acids and sodium hydroxide are the most eluents applied for desorption of BPA molecules loaded onto AW-adsorbents. Looking toward the future, studies on the agricultural waste adsorbents based on polymers, activated carbons, nanoparticles and highly microporous carbons should be mostly considered by the researchers toward removing BPA. These future studies should be performed both in laboratory, pilot and industrial scales, and also should report the sustainable techniques for disposal of the spent AW-adsorbents after lose their adsorption performance on BPA.

Mesoporous Carbon from Optimized Date Stone Hydrochar by Catalytic Hydrothermal Carbonization Using Response Surface Methodology: Application to Dyes Adsorption. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING 2021.

Abstract
Providing efficient and environmental friendly ways to recover lignocellulosic waste remains a challenge around the world. In this study, citric acid-catalyzed hydrothermal carbonization (CHTC) was coupled with pyrolysis to convert date seed (Ds) into adsorbent material. In this regard, a central composite design (CCD) using response surface methodology (RSM) was developed to examine the influence of temperature, reaction time, and catalyst dose on the mass yield (Ym(%)) and carbon retention rate (CRR(%)) in the produced hydrochars. The optimized hydrochar (OHC-Ds) was obtained under optimal conditions (200°C, 120 min, 20 mg) and characterized by a Ym(%) and CRR(%) of 59.71% and 75.84%, respectively. Chemical activation by KOH of OHC-Ds followed by pyrolysis at 600°C resulted in an active material (AOHC-Ds) rich in carbon and characterized by a high specific surface area of 1251.5 m2/g, with the dominance of mesopores, as well as an amorphous structure comparable to graphite shown by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Adsorption experiments of two dyes on AOHC-Ds showed a high maximum adsorption capacity (Qm) of 657.89 mg g−1 for methylene blue (MB) and 384.61 mg g−1 for methyl orange (MO) compared to other conventional adsorbents. This result is due to the low acidity (pHpzc) of the surface of AOHC-Ds, which equals 6.75, and its surface, which is also rich in oxygenated functional groups such as (-OH), (C=O), and (C-O) shown by FTIR analysis. These results suggest that the coupling of CHTC and KOH activation followed by pyrolysis is an encouraging way to prepare an efficient and inexpensive adsorbent to remove dyes in wastewater.

Abstract
Ceramic hydroxyapatite foam (CF-HAP) was prepared by combining slip-casting and foaming methods. The prepared CF-HAP was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), physisorption of N2, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results of the specific surface area and SEM analyses revealed that the used shaping method provides CF-HAP with a wide range of porosity including macro and mesopores. Based on FTIR and XRD analyses, the CF-HAP is similar to pure well-crystallized hydroxyapatite. The adsorption results revealed that 94% of the BPA with a concentration of (40 mg/L) was effectively removed from the water and that the maximum adsorption capacity was higher in acidic than in basic medium. The thermodynamic studies indicated that the adsorption reaction was spontaneous and endothermic in nature. The adsorption capacity increased with the temperature and the BPA is chemisorbed on the ceramic foam. The isotherm data fitted slightly better with the Liu than with the Freundlich and Langmuir models suggesting that the adsorption was homogeneous and occurred only in the monolayer. The adsorption process depends largely on the BPA concentration and the results fitted well with the pseudo-first-order model. This confirms that the interaction between the BPA and the CF-HAP was mainly chemical in nature. The FTIR analysis of the used and fresh CF-HAP showed that all the hydroxyl and phosphorus bands characteristic of the hydroxyapatite shifted after adsorption of Bisphenol A. This suggests that the adsorption of Bisphenol A occurred in the sites of the hydroxyapatite. Therefore, it can be concluded that the CF-HAP has the potential to be used as an adsorbent for wastewater treatment and purification processes.

Abstract
In this present study, an abundant, available lignocellulosic biomass, sunflower seed shells, SSS, was used as a precursor to prepare an effective eco-adsorbent by treatment with H2SO4. A study of the surface characteristics of raw and acid-treated SSS (ACS) has shown that the addition of H2SO4 greatly affected the physicochemical properties of the obtained eco-adsorbent, improving the BET surface area from 6.106 to 27.145 m2 g-1 and surface oxygen-rich functional groups. Batch experiments were performed to assess the removal efficiency of a phenolic compound, bisphenol A (BPA), on the adsorbents. Several parameters were evaluated and are discussed (contact time, pollutant concentration, adsorbent dosage, and pH), determining that the adsorption efficiency of BPA onto SSS was notably improved, from 20.56% to 87.81% when a sulfuric acid solution was used. Different canonical and stochastic isotherm models were evaluated to predict the experimental behaviour. A dynamic study was performed based on the models of reaction kinetics and those of mass transfer. The results showed that the adsorption kinetics of BPA obey the fractal like-kinetic model of Hill for all experimental conditions. The equilibrium data are well suited to the Hill-Sips isotherm model with a determination coefficient >0.999. The kinetic modelling also indicates that the adsorption processes of BPA onto ACS are exothermic and proceed through a physical mechanism. A mass transfer study, using simplified models, proved that the process is controlled by intraparticle and film resistances to mass transfer of the BPA.

Abstract
In this study, we have investigated the removal efficiency of two organic pollutants: methylene blue (MB) and Reactive Blue 19 (RB19) dyes by using a brown marine alga abundantly available on the Moroccan coastlines called Bifurcaria bifurcata (Bif-Bcata). During the experiments that were conducted in batch mode, we have studied the effect of some parameters such as pH, Bif-Bcata mass, contact time, and initial dye concentration in order to optimize the most suitable biosorption conditions. The biosorption tests on Bif-Bcata showed that the equilibrium is reached after 15 min for both dyes MB and RB19. The optimal pH values are 5.6 and 1.0 for MB and RB19, respectively. Kinetic studies revealed that the biosorption of both dyes follows the pseudo-second-order model. The biosorption isotherms demonstrated that the Langmuir model is the most appropriate to describe the biosorption equilibrium for both dyes MB and RB19 with maximum biosorption capacities reaching 2744.5 mg/g for MB and 88.7 mg/g for RB19. According to these results, it is clear that Bif-Bcata can be considered a promising biomaterial to be used as an effective biosorbent for the elimination of cationic and anionic dyes from textile effluents.

Abstract
The catalytic performance of Fe supported on nickel phosphate (NiP) was evaluated for the removal of bisphenol A (BPA) by catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) at 140 °C and 25 bar of pure oxygen pressure. The prepared NiP and Fe/NiP materials were fully characterized by XRD, N2-physisorption, H2-TPR, TEM, and ICP analysis. Iron (Fe/NiP) impregnation of NiP support enhanced the BPA removal efficiency from 37.0 to 99.6% when CWAO was performed. This catalyst was highly stable given the operating conditions of acidic medium, high temperature, and high pressure. The Fe/NiP catalyst showed an outstanding catalytic activity for oxidation of BPA, achieving almost complete removal of BPA in 180 min at a concentration of 300 mg/L, using 4 g/L of Fe/NiP. No iron leaching was detected after the CWAO of BPA. The stability of Fe/NiP was performed over three consecutive cycles, noting that BPA conversion was not affected and iron leaching was negligible. Therefore, this catalyst (Fe/NiP) could be considered as an innocuous and effective long-lasting catalyst for the oxidation of harmful organic molecules.

Abstract
Herein, ethylenediamine functionalized porous carbon (PC-ED/1.5) was synthesized, then characterized by various methods and finally used as a functional material for Cu(ii) and Pb(ii) ion removal from water. XPS revealed the presence of numerous functionalities within the surface of PC including -NH and C-N-C groups. Furthermore, S BET, RS, XRD and FTIR analyses confirmed the changes implemented on the PC surface. Thereafter, a systematic study was implemented to analyze the interactions of the PC-ED/1.5 surface with Cu(ii) and Pb(ii) heavy metal ions. Hence, adsorption experiments showed that the PC-ED/1.5 exhibits maximum adsorption capacities of 123.45 mg g-1 and 140.84 mg g-1 for Cu(ii) and Pb(ii), respectively. Moreover, in situ electrostatic interactions occurring between the divalent cation and the PC-ED/1.5 functional groups was investigated. The mechanism involves chelation processes, electrostatic interactions and mechanical trapping of the metal ions in the adsorbent pores. Interestingly, a synergistic effect of the pores and surface active sites was observed. Finally, by using alginate bio-polymer we prepared membrane films of PC-ED/1.5 which showed long-term stability, regeneration capabilities and high mass recovery.

Abstract
Adsorption of organic pollutants (OPs), bisphenol A, and diuron, from aqueous solutions onto porous carbon materials (CMs) prepared from olive kernels, have been investigated. The effects of initial pH, initial OP concentration, temperature, and contact time on the adsorption capacity were studied. The adsorption of bisphenol A and diuron onto CMs was found to be optimal at pH 5.6 and 6.9, respectively. It was noticed that the adsorption of those organic pollutants from aqueous solution declined with increasing temperature and the process is exothermic. The rate of adsorption followed the second order kinetic equation. The equilibrium results showed that Langmuir model fits well with the data. The maximum adsorption capacities obtained using the best CM were 476 and 434 mg g-1 for BPA and diuron, respectively. The results showed that CMs made from olive kernels are an excellent and inexpensive biomass waste-derived sorbent. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
This work goes inside the understanding of organic pollutants adsorption mechanism over network alginate hydrogel beads based on immobilized bio-sourced PC@Fe3O4-NPs (PC@Fe3O4-NPs@Alginate) and highlights its high extent mass recovery in aqueous media. The samples were successfully synthesized, we previously developed porous carbon (PC), which, was used to elaborate PC@Fe3O4-NPs via simple in situ coprecipitation (PC@ Fe3O4-NPs), which was encapsulated by alginate-Ca2+ via the blend crosslinking method. The structural, textural, chemical and morphological proprieties of as prepared materials were studied by XRD, FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, XPS, SEM and TEM. The adsorption kinetic and isotherm data were well fitted to the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir models. Magnetic particles exhibited an excellent ability to adsorb methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions with maximum MB adsorption capacity of 180.42 mg g-1 (PC@Fe3O4 NPs powder) and 49.66 mg g-1 (beads based PC@Fe3O4-NPs@Alginate). Response surface methodology was used to optimize the removal efficiency of MB from aqueous solution and optimum parameters were determined. Magnetic beads based PC showed good magnetic propriety, long-term stability, regeneration capabilities and high extent mass recovery.

Abstract
In this paper, a novel structured carbon foam has been prepared from argan nut shell (ANS) was developed and applied in bisphenol A (BPA) removal from water. The results showed that the prepared carbon foam remove 93% of BPA (60 mg/L). The BPA equilibrium data obeyed the Liu isotherm, displaying a maximum uptake capacity of 323.0 mg/g at 20 °C. The calculated free enthalpy change (∆H° = - 4.8 kJ/mol) indicated the existence of physical adsorption between BPA and carbon foam. Avrami kinetic model was able to explain the experimental results. From the regeneration tests, we conclude that the prepared carbon foam has a good potential to be used as an economic and efficient adsorbent for BPA removal from contaminated water. Based on these results and the fact that the developed structured carbon foam is very easy to separate from treated water, it can serve as an interesting material for real water treatment applications.

Abstract
Porous carbon from Laminaria digitata algae activated using NaOH (PCLD@NaOH) was prepared by a chemical activation approach and has been tested for the adsorption of ketoprofen and aspirin molecules. The prepared PCLD@NaOH was characterized using XPS, FTIR, Raman, N2-physisorption, SEM, acidic/basic character (Boehm), and pHPZC. The batch adsorption of ketoprofen and aspirin was investigated under different parameters. The adsorption kinetics on PCLD@NaOH were well described by the Avrami-fractional kinetic model and the equilibrium data by Liu isotherm model. The adsorption capacity of aspirin (970.88 mg g−1 at 25 °C) was higher than ketoprofen (443.45 mg g−1 at 25 °C). The thermodynamic values indicate that the adsorption of ketoprofen and aspirin is exothermic and spontaneous. These results were in good agreement with DFT calculation that shows that the aspirin molecule presents high reactivity, electrophilicity, and softness compared to the ketoprofen molecule. Finally, the response surface methodology was used to optimize the removal efficiency of ketoprofen and aspirin. Porous carbon from Laminaria digitata algae activated using NaOH (PCLD@NaOH) was prepared by a chemical activation approach and has been tested for the adsorption of ketoprofen and aspirin molecules.![]()

Abstract
This paper reports the removal of paraquat from an aqueous solution using prepared carbonated jujube seed (JS/HSO-700). JS/HSO-700 was characterized by XPS, TGA, FTIR, N2 physisorption, SEM, and Raman techniques. FTIR revealed the presence of active species on the JS/HSO-700 surface. The removal rate of paraquat was investigated as a function of multiple operational factors such as contact time, adsorbent dose and solution pH. Adsorption mechanism was fully investigated based on FTIR, Raman, and BET analyses before and after adsorption. Response surface methodology modeling using central composite design was performed to statistically optimize the adsorption conditions. The experimental paraquat removal efficiency was found to be 96.7 ± 2.02%, whereas the predicted value of the model was 94.31 ± 4.43%, showing that the predicted model values are in good agreement with the experimental value. Finally, cost analysis was performed to confirm the cost of the adsorbent based on energy consumption and reagent costs. This paper reports the removal of paraquat from an aqueous solution using prepared carbonated jujube seed (JS/HSO-700).![]()
