“…One of the most widely used techniques is adsorption by activated carbon (AC) coming from agricultural wastes which show greater potential for the treatment of wastewaters due to very large quantities, easy to get and very low costs [43,39]. For the above reasons, a wide range of agricultural wastes including banana and pomegranate peels [44] and rice husk [29], sugar beet pulp [37], corn wastes [1], tea waste and rice husks [54], walnut shells [42], chestnut shells [15], orange peels [23], walnut [33] and citrus limetta peel [49].
