Abstract:
|
The current study aims to present a novel and inexpensive method for producing activated carbon using waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles in order to remove methylene blue (MB) dye from aqueous solution. Here, a novel method for producing activated carbon is developed by utilizing KOH and combining the carbonation and activation processes. Besides, the inert gases are not used in the production process. In order to determine the characteristics of the produced activated carbon texture,... | |
