Abstract
This paper assesses the applicability of a new carob waste-derived powdered activated carbon (PAC) obtained by steam activation for pharmaceutical compounds (PhCs) removal in urban wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) with activated sludge (AS) secondary treatment. The new carob-derived PAC presents chemical and textural properties similar to a high-performing commercial PAC produced from vegetable source by physical activation. The adsorption isotherms of three target PhCs, carbamazepine, diclofenac and sulfamethoxazole, spiked (at around 100 μg/L) in mixed liquor (ML) and in clarified-ML from the AS-bioreactor of a WWTP show: (i) minor reduction of PAC capacity with real MLs compared to clarified MLs; (ii) the higher the PhC hydrophobicity, the higher the PAC adsorption capacity in both water matrices; (iii) hydrophobic interactions probably overweight electrostatic interactions between the PhCs and the slightly positively charged PAC in these real water matrices with background organics and inorganics. The PhC adsorption results with ML and clarified-ML are used to calibrate the IAST-based tracer model (TRM) and predict the new PAC performance when added to AS-bioreactor vs. in post-secondary treatment, at the PhC naturally-occurring trace concentrations. The modelling projections show (i) one needs higher PAC doses than those reported in the literature, particularly in post-treatment, and (ii) the benefits of PAC dosing to the bioreactor, with only a slightly higher PAC dose being needed when compared to its post-secondary dosing and minimising the capital investment.

Abstract
The continued decrease in water quality requires new advances in the treatment of wastewater, including the preparation of novel, effective, environmentally friendly, and affordable sorbents of toxic pollutants. We introduce a simple non-conventional mechanochemical synthesis of magnetically responsive materials. Magnetic lignite and magnetic char were prepared by high-energy ball co-milling from either raw Slovak lignite or coal-based char together with a ferrofluid. The products were characterised by X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), volumetric magnetic susceptibility, and low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, and both magnetic carbons were comparatively tested as potential sorbents of As(V) oxyanions and Cd(II) cations in aqueous solutions. The magnetic char was an excellent sorbent of As(V) oxyanions (Qm = 19.9 mg/g at pH 3.9), whereas the magnetic lignite was less effective. The different sorption properties towards arsenic anions may have been due to different oxidation states of iron on the surfaces of the two magnetic composites (determined by XPS), although the overall state of iron monitored by Mössbauer spectroscopy was similar for both samples. Both magnetic composites were effective sorbents for removing Cd(II) cations (Qm (magnetic lignite) = 70.4 mg/g at pH 6.5; Qm (magnetic char) = 58.8 mg/g at pH 6.8).

Abstract
Highly microporous carbons were prepared from argan nut shell (ANS) using steam activation method. The carbons prepared (ANS@H2O-30, ANS@H2O-90, and ANS@H2O-120) were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared, nitrogen adsorption, total X-ray fluorescence, and temperature-programmed desorption (TPD). The ANS@H2O-120 was found to have a high surface area of 2853 m2/g. The adsorption of bisphenol A and diuron on ANS@H2O-120 was investigated. The isotherm data were fitted using Langmuir and Freundlich models. Langmuir isotherm model presented the best fit to the experimental data suggesting micropore filling of ANS@H2O-120. The ANS@H2O-120 adsorbent demonstrated high monolayer adsorption capacity of 1408 and 1087 mg/g for bisphenol A and diuron, respectively. The efficiency of the adsorption was linked to the porous structure and to the availability of the surface adsorption sites on ANS@H2O-120. Response surface method was used to optimize the removal efficiency of bisphenol A and diuron on ANS@H2O-120 from aqueous solution. Graphical abstract ᅟ.
