“…Little research has been conducted on the production of AC from cactus peels (ACCP) according to Akkari et al [49], who tested ACCP for the removal of the cationic dye Basic Red 46 (BR46). H 3 PO 4 was used as the activating agent, since it produces better AC with non-hazardous properties.…”

Wastewater treatment has attracted much attention in recent years as a potential source of water, and there are some concerns about its safety for human use. Eco-friendly and cost-effective adsorbent materials were successfully synthesized from several peels, such as orange, banana, pomegranate, avocado, kiwi, etc., and were used as natural adsorbents or as activated carbons derived from these peels for water and wastewater treatment. In this review, the latest research focusing on the effective modification of these peels for the removal of several pollutants found in wastewaters are summarized and compared, such as pharmaceuticals, dyes, heavy metals, and anions that are released in waste and have a negative impact on human and animal health. In this review, focus is given to activated carbon produced from fruit peels. Moreover, fruit peels as adsorbent materials, without previously being converted to activated carbon, are of limited use in the recent literature.

Purpose. A leading cause of water contamination is the widespread use of dyes, which are consumed in large amounts. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the potential of the Cactus paddle (CP) as an environmentally safe biosorbent for removing Basic Red 46 dye from aqueous media. Methodology. Various analytical tools, comprising XRF, XRD, BET/BJH, FTIR, and pHPZC methods, were used to examine the surface characteristics of the biosorbent. For assessing the ability of CP for BR46 adsorption, batch adsorption assays were performed. Findings. An amount of 3.45 mg · g-1 of BR46 was adsorbed at pH 7, 500 rpm and 293 K within 180 minutes. The isothermal data was described by both the Freundlich and the Langmuir equations with R2  0.984 and 2  0.01. The kinetics was well described by a PSO model, suggesting that physico-chemical interactions govern the adsorption process. Originality. For the first time, the effective use of a local raw material resource CP as a biosorbent for the removal of BR46 dye has been substantiated. Practical value. As a result of the findings of this study, it seems possible that CP can be regarded as a sustainable resource, which would create a possibility for addressing environmental concerns in the future.

“…Due to their substantial capacity for removing organic matter and affordability, adsorption techniques are highly effective in treating industrial wastewater. 14 Through considerable prior research [12][13][14][15][16][17][18] for treating textile and dye effluents, the efficacy of adsorption methods has been proven.…”
