Olive stones have been widely used as a renewable energy biowaste source. As they are
rich in elemental carbon (40–45 wt%), much research focussed on effectively converting …

As we all know, environmental protection and sustainable energy utilization are significant
challenges for us. Due to their many excellent characteristics, carbon materials have been …

Biochar and activated carbon, both carbonaceous pyrogenic materials, are important
products for environmental technology and intensively studied for a multitude of purposes. A …

This study investigates the adsorption potential of natural materials waste. The biosorbent
used is an untreated pomegranate peel (PGP) derived from local agricultural activities to …

The synergistic photocatalytic activity was obtained when CdS and BiVO 4 nanoparticles
(NPs) were coupled. The samples were characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM-EDX, and UV …

According to the International Biochar Initiative (IBI), biochar is a charcoal which can be
applied to soil for both agricultural and environmental gains. Biochar technology seems to …

The escalating level of atmospheric CO2 is one of the most pressing environmental
concerns of our age. The development of advanced materials for efficient CO2 capture and …

A review of the production of activated carbons from agricultural residues is presented. The
effects of various process parameters on the pyrolysis stage are reviewed. Influences of …

In this study, low cost activated carbon was prepared from the grape stalk by chemical
activation with ZnCl 2 in CO 2 atmosphere and its characteristics were determined …

Commercial activated carbon is a preferred adsorbent for the removal of micropollutants
from the aqueous phase; however, its widespread use is restricted due to high associated …
