Adsorption of methylene blue from aqueous solution by activated carbon-loaded copper
oxide nanocomposites (CuO@ AC) was investigated. The activated carbon was derived …

Mangrove pile leftovers which were found as waste at the construction sites were used as a
precursor to prepare activated carbon by adopting phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) as an …

We prepared activated carbon by pyrolyzing an agro-waste, rice husk, in the presence of
ZnCl2. The activated carbon displayed both microporous and mesoporous nature with a …

This study developed a new adsorbent, specifically activated carbon-loaded silver
nanoparticles (AgNPs-AC) by coating the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) onto activated …

Activated carbons were prepared from three parts of Dipterocarpus alatus fruit (wing,
endocarp and pericarp), an abundant and renewable waste in Southeast Asia, by chemical …

In the present study, activated carbon (AC) simply derived from Pistacia khinjuk and
characterized using different techniques such as SEM and BET analysis. This new …

This work reports the production of activated carbons (AC) from bitter orange peel by using
ZnCl 2 or H 3 PO 4 as activating agent at two different carbonization temperatures (450° C …

In this study, activated carbon was prepared from an abundant Egyptian agricultural waste
material (Corn Cob) through microwaves assisted activation. The effect of using two different …

Three different types of activated carbon were synthesized from tea-waste by chemical
activation method using three activating agents-H 3 PO 4 (H-AC), KOH (K-AC) and ZnCl 2 (Z …

The use of cheap and eco-friendly adsorbents studied as an alternative substitution of
activated carbon for removal of dyes from wastewater. Adsorbents prepared from orange …
