Fruit peel-based mesoporous activated carbon via microwave assisted K2CO3 activation: Box Behnken design and desirability function for methylene blue dye adsorption

A low-cost fruit waste namely watermelon peel (WMP) was utilized as a promising precursor for the preparation of mesoporous activated carbon (WMP-AC) via microwave assisted-K2CO3 activation. The WMP-AC was applied as an adsorbent for methylene blue dye (MB) removal. Several types of characterization...
