摘要

This study explores the adsorption of U(VI) ions using avocado seed-derived activated carbon (ASAC). Characterization via FTIR, XRD, SEM, and TGA confirms successful adsorption. Kinetic studies follow a pseudo-second-order model, while isotherms fit Langmuir and Freundlich models. Thermodynamic analysis indicates a spontaneous, exothermic process. Practical applicability and reusability are demonstrated in column experiments and desorption studies. ASAC achieves 97% uranium uptake within five minutes, highlighting its rapid performance. The study introduces avocado seeds as a sustainable, cost-effective, and eco-friendly adsorbent for uranium remediation.
