Development of versatile, broad-spectrum adsorbents for the removal of diverse dyes from contaminated water and oil is highly desirable. In this study, a calcium alginate carbon aerogel (CCA) as an adsorbent for various types of dyes was fabricated from sodium alginate by wet spinning, cross-linking, drying, and high-temperature carbonization. The CCA carbonized at 1000 °C (CCA-1000) showed a good adsorption effect on methylene blue as a cationic dye, methyl orange as an anionic dye, oil red O as a solvent dye, and nine other dyes. Adsorption kinetics, adsorption effect of various parameters such as temperature and solution pH, regeneration performance, and adsorption mechanism were studied. The ultrahigh adsorption capacities of CCA-1000 for malachite green, crystal violet, and acid fuchsin, each with similar triphenylmethane structures, were determined to be 7059, 2390, and 6964 mg g–1, respectively. Interestingly, unlike previously reported carbon aerogels with simple oil–water separation, due to the amphiphilicity, CCA-1000 fabricated herein can be utilized to separate oil–water, surfactant-stabilized water-in-oil, and oil-in-water emulsions with simultaneous dye removal from water and oil. The present work may open up a new avenue for designing carbon aerogels with exceptional performance for broad-spectrum dye adsorption and oil–water separation from sustainable natural seaweed resources.

“…Porous carbon has a wide range of uses, including catalysts, heavy metals adsorbents, separation of various gases, energy storage, and electrochemical materials, due to its unique characteristics. 30 The porous carbon media is structurally complex and the total volume, size, and distribution of the pores determine how the molecules of a gas are adsorbed on the porous carbon, which these pores have strong van der Waals forces for the adsorption process. 31 Natural precursors biomass can be used for porous carbon synthesis such as rice straw, tobacco, coffee, pine cone, palm shell, etc.…”

BACKGROUND: Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are growing families of chemicals that are regarded as emerging contaminants and are becoming a serious threat to the environment. Adsorptive removal of micropollutants has been extensively studied using activated carbons derived from agro-poultry waste biomass and byproducts. The non-sustainable resources and steep supply chain costs further accelerate the search for finding new renewable materials for adsorbent preparation. In the present study, the carbon prepared from Pleurotus floridanus biomass obtained as a value-added product from laccase production was used as an adsorbent for the removal of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, namely piroxicam (PRX). RESULTS: The prepared carbon was activated using zinc chloride (ZAC) and showed an excellent Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area of about 285.1 m 2 g −1 . ZAC displayed a rapid adsorption capacity for PRX of about 6.08 mg g −1 with an adsorption equilibrium time of 90 min. Both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm equations were best fitted to the experimental data. The results of kinetic studies were fitted best with pseudo-first-order kinetic models.Conclusions: Fungal biomass obtained as a value-added product of fermentation media can be converted into carbon, which is effective in adsorbing PPCPs such as PRX.
