Preparation and Modification of Activated Carbon for the Removal of Pharmaceutical Compounds via Adsorption and Photodegradation Processes: A Comparative Study

In the present research, the removal of pharmaceutical contaminants based on atenolol (AT) and propranolol (PR) using modified activated carbon (AC) in a liquid solution was studied. Two methods, adsorption and photodegradation, were used to eliminate AT and PR. First, AC was prepared from date stem...
