Activated carbons (ACs) based on apricot shells (AS), wood (W), and walnut shells (WS) were applied to adsorb atrazine in co-solutions. To study the effect of Bisphenol A (BPA) on the adsorption behavior of atrazine, the adsorption performance of ACs for BPA in single solution was studied. The results demonstrated that the adsorption kinetics of BPA fitted the pseudo-second-order model, the adsorption isotherms of BPA followed the Langmuir model. Meanwhile, the adsorption kinetics of atrazine fitted the pseudo-second-order kinetics model and the isotherm was consistent with the Freundlich model both in single solution and co-solution. In addition, competitive adsorption was observed when atrazine coexisted with BPA or humic acid. For the adsorption capacity, the adsorption amount of ASAC, WAC, and WSAC for atrazine obviously decreased by 18.0%, 30.0%, and 30.3% in the presence of BPA, respectively, which was due to the π−π interactions, hydrophobic interactions, and H-bonds, resulting in the competitive adsorption between atrazine and BPA. This study contributes to the further understanding of the adsorption behavior for atrazine in co-solution.

Highly porous activated carbons were synthesized via the mechanochemical salt-templating method using both sustainable precursors and sustainable chemical activators. Tannic acid is a polyphenolic compound derived from biomass, which, together with urea, can serve as a low-cost, environmentally friendly precursor for the preparation of efficient N-doped carbons. The use of various organic and inorganic salts as activating agents afforded carbons with diverse structural and physicochemical characteristics, e.g., their specific surface areas ranged from 1190 m2·g−1 to 3060 m2·g−1. Coupling the salt-templating method and chemical activation with potassium oxalate appeared to be an efficient strategy for the synthesis of a highly porous carbon with a specific surface area of 3060 m2·g−1, a large total pore volume of 3.07 cm3·g−1 and high H2 and CO2 adsorption capacities of 13.2 mmol·g−1 at −196 °C and 4.7 mmol·g−1 at 0 °C, respectively. The most microporous carbon from the series exhibited a CO2 uptake capacity as high as 6.4 mmol·g−1 at 1 bar and 0 °C. Moreover, these samples showed exceptionally high thermal stability. Such activated carbons obtained from readily available sustainable precursors and activators are attractive for several applications in adsorption and catalysis.

In this study, granular activated carbon, GAC, was modified by oxidation with HO and NaClO aqueous solutions and heat treatment at 900°C. The N adsorption isotherms at − 196°C and SEM and FTIR results were used to characterize the properties of the prepared ACs. Textural parameters such as BET surface area and pore volumes were assessed by gas adsorption. The BET surface area values of solids were between 687 and 876 m2g-1. Additionally, immersion enthalpies of activated carbons in benzene, water, hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide solutions and Ni(II) and Cd(II) solutions of 500 mgL were determined, with values between 32 and 145 Jg-1. Ni(II) and Cd(II) adsorption isotherms were determined at pH 6 on activated carbons and competitive adsorption tests were realized between the two ions. The results show that in the tests carried out, the adsorption capacity decreased when the content of chemical groups on the surface also decreased. Finally, the experimental results of adsorption from the solution were adjusted to the Langmuir and Freundlich models and the first model was found to be better. With maximum adsorption capacities, the values for Ni(II) were between 3.99 and 64.9 mgg-1 and for Cd(II) were between 2.61 and 55.2 mgg-1. The values of the competitive adsorption ions present in the solution, Ni(II) and Cd(II), in the activated carbons, decreased compared to those obtained in the simple adsorption, indicating the effect of the an ion competitive presence in adsorption another.

Abstract Wastewater from car wash stations of agricultural machinery is contaminated with mechanical impurities, oil products, pollution generated by exhaust gases, fertilizers and processing agents used in agriculture, as well as a large amount of surfactants. Purification of this wastewater to the quality required for their reuse allows organizing a circulating water supply scheme, which significantly reduces not only the negative impact on the environment, but also the need for clean tap water. This article describes the results of wastewater treatment from car wash stations of agricultural machinery on an electroflotator and post-treatment by filtration through various filter media, incl. through a sorbent made of modified rice straw - agricultural waste.
