Thermodynamic study of the interactions of salicylic acid and granular activated carbon in solution at different pHs

The inappropriate use of pain medication has led to the appearance of salicylic acid molecules (aspirin’s metabolite excretion) in surface water, which causes problems for the environment. The adsorption process using activated carbon is one of the processes that is used for the removal of organic c...
