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 …

In this study, activated carbon (AC) as novel adsorbent was prepared from low cost and
locally available source such as peanut sticks wood. The surface properties of this new …

Application of an agricultural waste material, rice husk, has been investigated for
preparation of activated carbon. The rice husk‐activated carbon (RHAC) was successfully …

Carbon is dense as well as porous solid form used in a variety of applications. Activated
carbons are made through pyrolysis and activation carbonaceous natural as well as …

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 …

Characterization and adsorption characteristics of Cocos nucifera L. activated carbon
(CNAC) have been investigated. The activated carbon used in this study was prepared from …

The objective of this work is to study the adsorption capacity of activated carbon prepared
from the peels of a fruit named Citrus limetta which is abundantly available and is usually …

In this study, activated carbon prepared from hazelnut husk (HHAC) using zinc chloride as
chemical activating agent was characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, BET surface area …

The potential feasibility of treated and untreated activated carbon for removal of methylene
blue from aqueous solution was investigated. The effects of various experimental …

Wastes must be managed properly to avoid negative impacts that may result. Open burning
of waste causes air pollution which is particularly hazardous. Flies, mosquitoes and rats are …
