In this study, modified activated fishbone charcoal (MAFC) was successfully prepared to remove emulsified oil from oily wastewater. Various characteristic techniques, including SEM, XRD, FTIR, and BET, were employed to investigate the morphology, texture, and surface properties of as-prepared samples. BET results demonstrated that the specific surface area of fishbone charcoal increased from 69.8 m 2 /g to 206.0 m 2 /g after treatment with K 2 CO 3 as an activating agent, while the total pore volume of MAFC increased from 0.003 cm 3 /g to 0.3 cm 3 /g, accompanied by the formation of abundant pore structures. It was observed that 90.1% of emulsified oil (100 mg/L) was successfully removed by MAFC under our experimental conditions. The results of a kinetic and isotherm model analysis indicated that the adsorption experimental data were not only consistent with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm but were also well-described by the pseudo-second-order adsorption model. It is expected that this highly efficient and inexpensive MAFC can be a promising bio-adsorbent for removing organic pollutants from industrial wastewater.
