Using coconut shell and boric acid as raw materials, a new boron-doped coconut shell mesoporous carbon material (B-CSC) was prepared using a simple one-step pyrolysis method for efficient adsorption and removal of tetracycline pollutants in water. The effects of pyrolysis temperature and boron-carbon mass ratio on the adsorption performance under key preparation conditions were systematically studied, and their microstructure and physicochemical properties were characterized using a specific surface area and pore size analyzer (BET), field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photon spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectrometer (Raman), and Zeta potentiometer (Zeta). The effects of initial pH, different metal cations, and different background water quality conditions on the adsorption effect were systematically investigated.
