Implication

This research shows improved crude oil adsorption in wastewater using activated carbon from date palm seeds, indicating effective treatment potential.

Key Points

  • The optimized activated carbon (AC) showed an exceptional crude oil adsorption capacity of 1816 mg/g.
  • AC5, synthesized with a 4:1 KOH: biochar ratio and at 700 °C, outperformed other adsorbents with higher surface areas.
  • The adsorption kinetics follows the pseudo-second-order model, suggesting a promising adsorption process.
  • The findings indicate that the optimized AC represents a significant advancement over previously reported biochar adsorbents.
