Key Points

To develop a ZnO-doped activated carbon from PET bottles for effective wastewater treatment.
Used pyrolysis to recover activated carbon from PET bottles.
Created ZnO-doped composite for wastewater treatment.
Assessed pollutant removal efficiency through adsorption and photocatalysis.
The composite demonstrated significant pollutant removal effectiveness.
Synergistic effects of adsorption and photocatalysis improved treatment outcomes.

Abstract

Plastic waste-derived activated carbon and ZnO-doped composite were developed for efficient wastewater treatment through synergistic adsorption–photocatalysis for enhanced pollutant removal.
