Oxidation of Reactive Orange 16 by Copper Oxide System

A commercial activated carbon (KI7080) sample was treated by HN03 and followed by heat treatment at 500 and 700°C under a flow of N2. Three types of copper oxide supported-activated carbon catalysts were prepared using impregnation techniques. 5 wt % of Cu was loaded for each catalyst and calcine...
