In this study, the adsorption of methylene blue by orthophosphoric acid-modified Solanum
macrocarpon calyx activated carbon was investigated. This adsorbent was characterized by …

In developing countries, agriculture generates not only income but also waste. Therefore, it
is essential to recycle this waste for different purposes. This study explored an affordable …

This study examined the adsorption of copper onto raw Globimetula oreophila leaves. The
adsorbent surface nature was examined using scanning electron microscopy and Fourier …

Plastic waste activated through CO2 carbon (PWAC) was studied as an adsorbent for the
removal of acid red 114 from textile industry effluent. Plastic waste carbon was obtained from …

Heavy metal pollution is a prevalent and critical environmental concern. Its rampancy is
attributed to indiscriminate anthropogenic activities. Several technologies including …

A novel, cost-effective activated carbon was prepared from local corn industry waste sludge
to treat chromium (VI) ions from an aqueous solution. Adsorption is one of the promising …
