Adsorption of cadmium from wastewater with activated carbons derived from pig fur biowaste: A comparative study of in-situ and ex-situ activation routes

The environmental challenges associated with cadmium contamination in wastewater have necessitated the development of high-performing activated carbons (ACs) for effective wastewater treatment. Adsorption capacity depends on both the surface area and the adsorption-active functional groups developed...
