var s = "This is a string that contains ¶, a special character.";
s = s.replace(/¶/g, "");

Yields:

"This is a string that contains , a special character."

This will remove all occurrences of the character. No jQuery necessary - just vanilla browser-provided JavaScript.

Some additional details are available at https://developer.mozilla/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/replace.

jQuery isn't needed for this, you can achieve it by using native javascripts replace function:

var myString = "ABC¶DEFG"
alert(myString.replace("¶", ""))

javascript replace function should work. If it isn't finding the character then try using the unicode or ansi equivalent.
