This work deals with finding an appropriate treatment process to enhance the utilization of
rice by-products as precursors for producing efficient activated carbons. In this respect …

In this study, rice husk was used as a precursor to prepare activated carbon using steam as
a physical activation agent. Steam for activation can be used to activate almost all raw …

Activated Carbon is an essential substance for many industrial activities. For instance,
bleaching agent (in sugar factory) and for water filtration. Most of the Activated Carbon for …

The chemically activated biochar was produced through the pyrolysis of rice husk. Thermal
gravimetric and elemental analysis were conducted to characterize the raw rice husk. The …

Rice husk (RH) is a kind of biomass with huge amount in the world. Comprehensive
utilization of RH is of great significance for a sustainable society. In this paper, a green …

A coupling of low-temperature sulfuric acid-assisted carbonization and H 3 PO 4 activation
was employed to convert NaOH-pretreated rice husks into activated carbons with extremely …

The production of functional activated carbon materials starting from cheap natural
precursors using environmentally friendly processes is a highly attractive subject in material …

To minimize waste production and reduce reliance on fossil fuels, agricultural waste such as
rice straw has been actively used in biochemical production. In Taiwan, cellulosic waste has …

This study reports the novel dry activation for preparing activated carbon with a high specific
surface area from rice husks using solid NaOH. Materials were characterized by N2 …

In this study, the feasibility of preparing effective adsorbents from unmitigated agroforestry
wastes was investigated. Three different kinds of carbon-like materials were produced by …
