Blended mangosteen/pomegranate peels as a precursor for porous carbon material via microwave assisted‑potassium carbonate activation: Box-Benken design optimization for fuchsin basic and methylene violet dyes removal

Solid waste disposal and water pollution are the critical issues. Thus, this work aims to convert common domestic fruit wastes namely mangosteen peel (MP) and pomegranate peel (PP) into a mesoporous activated carbon (MPPP-AC) via microwave-induced strong alkaline salt (K2CO3) activation. The potenti...
