•Citrus pectin derived porous carbons (CPPCs) were synthesized a facile zinc chloride activation approach.•CPPCs had abundant macro/meso/micropores for trapping MB molecules.•CPPCs exhibited ultrahigh adsorption capacity, rapid adsorption rate and good reusability toward removal of MB.
An adsorbent, citrus pectin derived porous carbons with ultra-high adsorption capacity, rapid adsorption rate and good reusability toward removal of methylene blue, was synthesized by a facile zinc chloride activation approach in this study. The materials hold a great potential for treatment of dye wastewater.
