The production of granular activated carbon (GAC) basically depends on the correct
selection of carbonization temperature, activation ratio and agent (physical or chemical) as …

The use of agricultural wastes (AWs) as raw materials in the production of granular activated
carbon (GAC) is an important topic worldwide. The abundance of pecan nutshells (PNs) and …

Activated carbons were prepared from Khaya senegalensis fruits. Carbonization and
activation temperatures were 500° C and 800° C, respectively, at residence time of 5 min for …

Activated carbon has been prepared from date fruit pits. The carbon, prepared at different
burn‐off rates, showed a high uptake of methylene blue. At 92% burn‐off (weight loss …

The adsorption of Methylene blue by the activated carbons prepared from a locally available
material Lapsi Seed Stone has been studied. Various activated carbons were prepared by …

Natural material such as date pits have been used as precursor for activated carbon, using
zinc chloride as activating agent. The effect of preparation conditions on the produced …

Jackfruit peel waste which has no economic value has been utilized for activated carbon
preparation. The preparation of the activated carbon was carried out using chemical …

The adsorption of methylene blue (MB) on activated carbons prepared from date stones with
different degree of activation has been investigated. Equilibrium adsorption data of MB was …

Eucalyptus grandis sawdust, a major waste from the growing Uruguayan wood industry, was
used in previous work to prepare powdered activated carbon (PAC). In the present work …

In this study, activated carbons were produced through the chemical activation of caraway
seeds using three different activators: Na2CO3, K2CO3, and H3PO4. A 1: 2 weight ratio of …
