What is it about?

In this research, new low-cost mesoporous activated carbons with high adsorption capacity were prepared by various agricultural bio-wastes, including Kiwi peel, Cucumber peel, and Potato peel and were applied to dye removal from dye bearing wastewater from single and multicomponent systems.

Why is it important?

Today's modern world, due to the global water scarcity, finding an efficient and low-cost way for water treatment became very important. Activated carbon as one of the oldest-known, low-cost, and easy preparation materials that used for water purification, is still interesting for water and watersheds researchers.

Perspectives

Writing this article was a great pleasure as it has co-authors with whom I have had long standing collaborations and i hope this article be useful for those researchers who are trying to remove organic pollutants (specially dyes) from the wastewater by low-cost adsorbents .

Be one of the co-authors in this article which was corresponded by Prof. Niyaz Mohammad Mahmoodi who I have had long-standing collaborations, was a great pleasure for me. I hope this article will be useful for future researchers who study in the water and wastewater field.
