Characterization of Ziziphus lotus' Activated Carbon and Evaluation of Its Adsorption Potential.This study aims to prepare activated carbon from an interesting biomaterial, corresponding to the cores of Ziziphus lotus, for the first time to the best of our knowledge, according to a manufacturing process based on its chemical and thermal activation.  Furthermore, data on the adsorption isotherm showed a maximum adsorption capacity of 14.493 mg/g and fit better with the Langmuir model.  The thermodynamic parameters (∆G0, ∆S0, and ∆H0) indicate that the adsorption process is endothermic and spontaneous.
