Facile removal of rhodamine B and metronidazole with mesoporous biochar prepared from palm tree biomass: adsorption studies, reusability, and mechanisms

Biochar was produced by pyrolysing palm tree bark biomass at 500 °C for the removal of rhodamine B (RhB) and metronidazole (MET). Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray analyses were u...
