Sustainable biomass-derived activated carbons from Rosa brunonii seeds for high-efficiency textile dye removal from water

Key Points

• The aim is to evaluate the efficacy of activated carbons from Rosa brunonii seeds in removing textile dyes from water.
• Preparation of sustainable activated carbons using physical and chemical activation methods.
• Evaluation of adsorption capacity for textile dyes, specifically Disperse Orange 1 (DO1).
• Activated carbons showed high efficiency in the adsorption of selected textile dyes.
• Demonstrated significant potential for wastewater treatment applications.
