Blended tropical pineapple peel and crown fruit wastes as precursor for activated carbon by microwave-assisted H3PO4 activation: process optimization for methylene blue dye removal

A blended tropical pineapple (Ananas comosus) peel and crown (PPC) fruit wastes were utilized as an alternate source material for producing mesoporous-activated carbon through H3PO4 activation employing microwave pyrolysis. Diverse techniques including BET, XRD, FTIR, and SEM-EDX were employed to ch...
