Pyrolyzed coal base high surface area and mesoporous activated carbon for methyl violet 2B dye removal: Optimization of preparation conditions and adsorption key parameters

Herein, a low-grade Malaysian coal namely Merit Karpit coal (MRTKC) was transformed into high surface area mesoporous activated carbon (MRTKC-AC) via pyrolysis-assisted ZnCl2 activation. A numerical optimization approach rooted in the Box-Behnken design (BBD) was employed to determine the best opera...
