TL;DR: The SAC and the regenerated SAC after five adsorption-regeneration cycles (RSAC-5th) were fully characterized by several techniques and showed that the SAC surface is composed by oxygen containing-groups, whilst the RSAC- 5th also presents nitrogen ones, provenient from the PCT molecules.

Adsorption modeling, thermodynamics, and DFT simulation of tetracycline onto mesoporous and high-surface-area NaOH-activated macroalgae carbon
R. Vigasini,Manman Wei,Fatma Marrakchi,Chuan Yuan,Xiaoxue Cheng,Ding Jiang,Fatemeh Fazeli Zafar,Yanxia Fu,Shuang Wang +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an activated carbon (ENAC) was prepared by NaOH activation, using macroalgae (Enteromorpha clathrate) as raw material, and the results indicated that the prepared ENAC had a great application prospect in the removal of antibiotics from aqueous solution.

Ecotoxicology of human pharmaceuticals.
TL;DR: It is shown that only very little is known about long-term effects of pharmaceuticals to aquatic organisms, in particular with respect to biological targets, and targeted ecotoxicological studies are needed focusing on subtle environmental effects.

Second-order kinetic model for the sorption of cadmium onto tree fern: a comparison of linear and non-linear methods.
TL;DR: Results show that the non-linear method may be a better way to obtain the desired parameters of the pseudo-second-order kinetic model for the sorption of cadmium onto ground-up tree fern.

Effect of HNO3 treatment on the surface acidity of activated carbons
Joong S. Noh,James A. Schwarz +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a homologous series of activated carbon samples was prepared from a low ash source carbon by controlled oxidation using nitric acid, and physicochemical properties (specifically, BET surface area, ash content, acid/base neutralization, and ammonia adsorption) were determined.
