Cationic dyes pose potential health risks to humans due their higher toxicity levels. Most current research focuses on the utilization of biomass waste in preparation multifunctional materials mitigate adverse impact cationic dye wastewater environment. However, conventional methods biochar require elevated pyrolysis temperatures and greater energy consumption. Accordingly, this study aims investigate effectiveness removal methylene blue (MB) from simulated using a one-step phosphoric acid activation hydrothermal carbonization technique. SEM, BET, XRD, FTIR, XPS analyses were conducted surface morphology chemical composition pine sawdust (PS) as raw material, with carbon (HTC-PS), acid-activated (PHTC-PS). The results demonstrate that PHTC-PS exhibits maximum adsorption capacity 268.4 mg/g for MB at 298 K. experimental data its consistency through both Langmuir isotherm model pseudo-second-order kinetic model, suggesting mechanism predominantly involves monolayer formation interactions. Additionally, thermodynamic parameters reveal is spontaneous endothermic reaction. Thus, demonstrates method can achieve satisfactory efficiency advantages lower consumption, simplicity operation, mild conditions.

The development of Pickering interfacial catalysts for organic reactions in water is great importance to the green chemistry. In this study, amphiphilic hydrochar was prepared by a simple urea-modified hydrothermal carbonization with cellulose as an environmentally benign carbon source. It found that addition urea could not only promote but also introduce N atoms final material and tune amphiphilicity hydrochar. Palladium nanoparticles supported on N-doped exhibited high activity Suzuki reaction aqueous media. can be seen effectively stabilize emulsion, increase interface surface area, further accelerate reaction.
