The remaining biowastes are industrially processed to produce porous carbons (PCs). PCs derived from dende and babassu biowastes and produced at an industrial scale have been characterized by textural, chemical, and ecotoxicological parameters. A commercial activated carbon (CC) of mineral origin has been used as a benchmarking material. Although the CC sample presented a higher surface area (SBET = 1083 m2\/g), the PCs derived from the biowastes were richer in micropores (Vmicro = 0.25\u20130.26 cm3\/g), while the CC carbon presented wider pore size distribution with a higher mesopore volume (Vmeso = 0.41 cm3\/g). All the adsorbents used in this work have shown a non-acute ecotoxic behavior for the bacterium Vibrio fischeri (EC50-30 min &gt; 99% v\/v). The adsorbents have been tested for paracetamol and Cu2+ adsorption in mono- and bicomponent solutions. The uptake capacities of paracetamol (qe, 98\u2013123 mg g\u22121) and Cu2+ (qe, 15\u201318 mg g\u22121) from monocomponent solutions were similar to the ones obtained in the bicomponent solutions, indicating no competition or cooperative effects but a site-specific adsorption. This finding represents an advantage for the removal of these adsorbates when present in the same solution as they can be adsorbed under similar rates as in the single systems. Paracetamol adsorption was related to micropore filling, \u03c0-\u03c0 interactions, and H-bonding, whereas Cu2+ removal was attributed to the cation exchange mechanism and complexation to the hydroxyl groups at the carbons\u2019 surface.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/pr11072146","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,19]],"date-time":"2023-07-19T00:54:01Z","timestamp":1689728041000},"page":"2146","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Removal of Paracetamol and Cu2+ from Water by Using Porous Carbons Derived from Agrowastes"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Regiane C.","family":"Ferreira","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento EAD de Engenharia H\u00edbridos, Centro Universit\u00e1rio de Maring\u00e1\u2014UNICESUMAR, Av.
