KOH-activated carbon developed from biomass waste: adsorption equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic studies for Methylene blue uptake
In this paper, fallen coconut (Cocos nucifera) leaves were used as precursors to prepare activated carbon by thermal carbonization using KOH-activation method. The physical properties of the prepared coconut leaves-activated carbon (KAC) were calculated through the bulk density, ash content, moistur...
