High surface area activated carbon from a pineapple (ananas comosus) crown via microwave-ZnCl2 activation for crystal violet and methylene blue dye removal: adsorption optimization and mechanism
In this investigation, microwave irradiation assisted by ZnCl2 was used to transform pineapple crown (PN) waste into mesoporous activated carbon (PNAC). Complementary techniques were employed to examine the physicochemical characteristics of PNAC, including BET, FTIR, SEM-EDX, XRD, and pH at the poi...
