Superior adsorption and removal of doxorubicin from aqueous solution using activated carbon via thermally treated green adsorbent: isothermal, kinetic, and thermodynamic studies

Activated carbon from apricot seeds (ASAC) was successfully made using a low-cost, straightforward synthesis process. With the use of various instruments, including XRD, XPS, FT-IR, SEM, and TEM, the adsorbent was demonstrated. The surface area of the ASAC that was given was also shown to be 436.8 m
