Pomegranate peels collected from fresh juice shop as a renewable precursor for high surface area activated carbon with potential application for methylene blue adsorption
Pomegranate (Punica Granatum) peels were utilized as precursors to prepare mesoporous activated carbon (PPAC) via H3PO4-activation method. The surface characterization of PPAC was achieved using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), N2 adsorption/ desorption, X-Ray D...
