Comparative study of acid-treated and alkali-treated carbonised Kapok-fibres for oil/water absorption system

Kapok predominantly utilized as an adsorbent in removing wastewater such as dye, oil and heavy metals. However, a comparative study between acid-treated and alkali-treated carbonized Kapok fibers has not been carried out in detail. In this study, as-made Kapok fibers were carbonized and subsequently...
