Three adsorbents, namely, bentonite–alginate beads, activated carbon–alginate beads, and activated carbon–bentonite–alginate beads (ABA) were prepared for the adsorption of methylene blue (MB). The effects of solution pH (3–11), temperature (30, 40, and 50 °C), initial concentration (25–500 mg/L), a...

Mesoporous activated carbon was prepared using a hydrochar derived from coconut shell waste through hydrothermal carbonization and NaOH chemical activation process (COSHTC). Three sets of activated carbons were obtained with different hydrochar:NaOH impregnation ratios (1:1, 1:2, and 1:3). Among the...

Hydrothermal carbonization of biomass wastes presents a promising step in the production of cost-effective activated carbon. In the present work, mesoporous activated carbon (HAC) was prepared by the hydrothermal carbonization of rattan furniture wastes followed by NaOH activation. The textural and ...

In this work, a human hair-derived high surface area porous carbon material (HHC) was prepared using potassium hydroxide activation. The morphology and textural properties of the HHC structure, along with its adsorption performance for tetracycline (TC) antibiotics, were evaluated. HHC showed a high...

Microwave-assisted H3PO4 chemical activation was applied to convert corn (Zea mays) cob (CC) residue into mesoporous corn cob activated carbon (CC-AC) as a desirable adsorbent for cationic dye (methylene blue; MB) removal. The activation process was carried out by impregnating CC with phosphoric aci...

Co-hydrothermal carbonization (co-HTC) has emerged recently as a promising thermochemical technique that can transfer organic solid residue (e.g., biomass, sewage sludge, plastic, livestock manure) into value-added products (i.e., hydrochar). This advanced mechanism conceals the weakness of hydrocha...
