Effect of initial dye concentration on the removal of Methylene blue by Biomass-derived Carbon dots (BCDs)

Biomass-derived Carbon dots (BCDs) have received much attention due to their superior properties, including water solubility, low toxicity, biocompatibility, small size, and fluorescence. The use of green biomass resources not only meets the urgent need for large-scale synthesis biomass CDs (BCDs), but also promotes the development of sustainable applications. In this paper, BCDs have been employed as a prospective adsorbent for the removal of a basic dye, methylene blue, from an aqueous solution under initial dye concentration. The maximum adsorption capacity obtained ۸۴.۶ mg/g. Therefore, we strongly believe that the present study will serve as a good guiding star for the removal of dye from aqueous solution by BCDs
