Adsorption properties of activated carbons prepared from waste newspaper by chemical and
physical activation were investigated using water vapor, ammonia, methane, and methylene …

Activated carbon is a porous material made by activation of carbon materials, such as coal,
by steam or carbon dioxide gas to form numerous micropores on the surface which gives the …

Activated carbons were prepared from old newspaper and paper prepared from simulated
paper sludge by chemical activation using various alkali carbonates and hydroxides as …

The composition, structure, and adsorption behavior of activated carbons (ACs) derived from
three different types of waste polymers, ie, tire rubber (TR), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and …

Activated carbon (AC) was modified by oxidation with nitric acid and microwave-assisted
reduction. The textural properties and surface oxygen content as well as the surface acidities …

The main objective of this work is to prepare and characterize activated carbon form oil palm
fiber (PFAC), an industrial solid waste abundantly available from the biodiesel …

Activated carbons were produced from several solid wastes, namely, waste PET, waste tires,
refuse derived fuel and wastes generated during lactic acid fermentation from garbage …

Adsorption of phenol, hydroquinone, m-cresol, p-cresol and p-nitrophenol from aqueous
solutions onto high specific area activated carbon cloth has been studied. The effect of …

We investigated the effects of chemical activation of hydrothermally derived activated carbon
spheres (ACSs) with KOH at 800° C, in hydroxide-to-sample mass ratios of 2–5: 1, on the …

A low-cost and well-developed type of activated carbon (AC) was synthesized from coconut
shell and municipal sludge via two-stage co-pyrolysis. It not only reused disposed sewage …
