Preparation Of Activated Carbon From Pineapple Peel And Pomelo Peel For Dyes Removal: Equilibrium, Kinetic And Thermodynamic Studies

The production of activated carbon from pineapple peel (PiPAC) and pomelo peel (PoPAC) through physiochemical activation consisting of potassium hydroxide (KOH) impregnation and carbon dioxide (C02) gasification has been successfully investigated. Activated carbon produced were used for removal o...
