Effect of treating activated carbon derived from date pits with H2SO4 on the adsorption of methylene blue dye molecules: kinetic, equilibrium and thermodynamic studies

by Guemgam A. Gherbia A. Bakchiche B. Guenane H.

Water and wastewater treatment and reuse

In this work, untreated activated carbon (UDP-AC) and activated carbon chemically treated with H₂SO₄ (TDP-AC) were successfully synthesized from date pits, a solid waste material. Characterization was performed on both UDP-AC and TDP-AC, and both samples were used to adsorb methylene blue (MB) dye...
